Hello

The document linked above is not the recall notice - please go to

http://en.petzl.com/petzl/SportNews?News=160

to see the recall notice. Note that this information was posted on this board before:

Anyone having any questions regarding the recall should contact Petzl America directly. That said, I will certainly try to monitor such questions on this board and post a reply as soon as possible.

Finally, I do not recommend the BALL-LOCK locking system for caving use - the mechanism is sensitive to grit/silt and can lock up if it gets muddy. Best to use screwgate carabiners for caving.
