justhockeykid 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2011 I heard from some people that Tour has recalled there new LX-5 skates due to a "boot problem". I have also heard that they are looking at there EX-1 for a possible "sole problem". I know the tour guy roams these forums, If he could tell us more about this. Problems should be more public for buyers than they really are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the_game 452 Report post Posted March 24, 2011 I haven't heard/seen anything.I've been in the EX-1 since November or so, skating 2 to 3 times a week and the boot is in fantastic shape. Best Tour skate in my opinion since the G-80s. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tour17 0 Report post Posted April 5, 2011 Yes we did recall the THOR LX-5. We were concerned that some of the boots were produced with a flaw in the Eyelet Roll reinforcement. Since the LX-5 is a new skate and we had only shipped a limited amount, we wanted to be on the safe side and recall the skates to inspect and fix what could be a problem. The problem has been taken care of. We are now shipping the LX-5. We are fortunate that we caught the problem early, and was able to react quickly.Concerning the comments about the THOR EX-1, we have had no problems with this skate. The EX-1 has been a great success for us. The only problem is that sales have exceeded our expectations, and we have been temperary out of a couple sizes.
