WASHINGTON - More than 13,000 rollerblade inline skates have been recalled in the U.S. after several reports of brake supports fracturing or breaking off, officials said.
The recall, announced on Thursday, involves Rollerblade Fury Inline Skates and Rollerblade Fury brake supports and impacts about 13,400 skates.
"Rollerblade has identified 11 reports of brake supports fracturing or breaking off of the skates," a notice from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission said.
No injuries have been reported.
The youth inline skates, Rollerblade Fury Black/White and Fury G Black/Pink, were sold in three adjustable sizes with ranges of 12J-2, 2-6 and 5-8, according to CPSC.
The skates were sold from May 2020 through March 2023 for about $150 at Inline Warehouse, Paragon Athletic Goods, REI, and other sporting goods stores, as well as Rollerblade Fury Inline Skate dealers nationwide and online at amazon.com, dickssportinggoods.com, inlinewarehouse.com and rollerblade.com.
A variant of the skate – with gray, non-marking brake pads – was sold for indoor institutional use directly to schools and rental facilities, the CPSC said.
