The CPSC and Petzl are recalling Petzl Scorpio Eashook Lanyards with Carabiners.   These devices are designed for adventure pack up.  The carabiner’s automatic closing system may malfunction and pose a risk of serious injury or death to the user.  About 230 of these lanyards were sold in the U/S and 22 were sold in Canada at Omni Progear, Ouray Mountain Sports, Moosejaw Mountaineering, Backcountry Gear Ltd. and boutique shops nationwide and online at www.petzl.com.  Do not use these defective lanyard-carabiners and contact Petzl by phone at 1-877-807-3805 or via email at [email protected] to obtain a postpaid return envelope and a refund.
