Achieve Your Alpine Ambitions.
Inspired by skimo racing, the latest members of our ski family place an emphasis on fast ascents and long-distance travel. They reside somewhere between our WSP and UltraVector skis.
Witness the new Voilé Hyper Endeavor.
Equally at home atop The Haute Route or on a long jaunt in The Catskills, these skis are light enough to go the distance and stiff enough to hold an edge on boilerplate. They won’t exactly shine in deep powder, but many an East Coast skier will likely press them into service at their local ski resort.
And as for the Voilé Traction Pattern Base, you already know the deal with that, right?
*The Traction Pattern base does not eliminate the need to carry skins.

SPECS
The width and radius of Voile skis differ from one length to another, so as to deliver uniform performance across the entire size range. Weights may vary slightly from one pair to another due to environmental factors, and by nature of the fact that they are made by hand.

Early Rise Camber
A directional, hard-carving turn personality makes this ski feel very powerful. A more traditional shape, with a turn radius on the longer side. This ski is characterised as stable and assertive.
Tip: Early-rise tip and wide shovel provide excellent float in powder.
Waist: Long running length. Engineered for strong edging ability when fast and steep. Cambered underfoot for stability.
Tail: Minimal taper, with a wide and flat hard-working tail for control in debris and harder conditions.
Hyper Series BC
Full Cap / Paulownia / Double Carbon / Traction Pattern Base
Ultralight paulownia construction that shaves nearly a pound per pair for easier ascents.
Traction Pattern "BC" scalebase has been included underfoot to allow for fewer transitions when traversing rolling terrain.
Anti-Ice Topsheet
Crafted from exceptionally durable polyamide material, and designed with a unique texture that effectively reduces the accumulation of snow and ice. This innovative feature is particularly beneficial during long approaches or in freezing conditions, where snow and ice buildup would normally hinder performance.
Paulownia Wood Core
Renowned for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, this paulownia delivers a combination of durability and featherlight agility. It's the ideal foundation for constructing ultralight touring skis, making it the perfect choice for backcountry enthusiasts seeking maximum efficiency and agility on their mountain adventures.
Voile Carbon-Weave x2
Two layers of Voile Carbon-Weave combine the lightweight strength of carbon fiber with the durability of triaxial fiberglass. The strategic integration of carbon fiber into the ski's construction reduces the weight while providing the perfect blend of responsiveness, stability, and energy transfer, allowing skiers to maneuver with precision and control.
Triaxial Fiberglass
Triaxial fiberglass increases dimensional stability along three axis, providing for balanced torsional stiffness and enhancing your ability to control the ski (precise and firm edge grip). Triaxial fiberglass maintains a consistent flex pattern throughout the ski, ensuring predictable performance across different snow conditions and skiing styles.
Full-Contact Steel Edge
Steel edges provide superior grip and control on hardpacked snow and icy conditions, enhancing stability and confidence while skiing. Two lengths of hardened steel with inset teeth wrap the perimeter of this ski. Each section is painstakingly shaped by hand to ensure a precise layup.
Sintered Black Base
This ski passes on the base graphics for the sake of an ultra-high molecular density base; making for faster downhill performance and greater wear/impact resistance. And you can rest assured that your p-tex repairs will be seamless after your day spent breaking the sound barrier.
Traction Pattern Base
For the backcountry skier who makes long approaches over rolling terrain, scaled base reduces the climbing skin transitions necessary to make it to their summit... perhaps negating the need for climbing skins entirely! The "scale base" underfoot creates friction against the snow surface when the ski is decambered, and then glides with the skier's forward stride.

These are light enough for touring, get good traction on ascents and are good for downhill. They are my ski Nirvana.
Mike Curiak | September 18th, 2025
Light, efficient, capable. I've used these on day trips and multi-day missions. Love how you can blur the lines on mellow grades between skinning and skating. Not a ski for every day, nor every person. but the OB BC's are a ski that will always be in my quiver.

I picked up a pair of the Voile Objective BCs for the 2021-22 season and have loved them every minute. Super lightweight which makes them great for long touring days and alpine missions. The traction pattern base really works! I've skinned up the local ski hill the entire way without skins, though the feature performs best on low angle slopes. It's nice to not have to debate whether to put skins on for rolling hills or gentle inclines that would normally be a pain or cost transition time. I put a pair of lightweight pin bindings on these and used them to ski the Grand Teton this winter, as well as pulling heavy sleds across the Kahiltna Glacier and skiing off Denali in Alaska. Very happy with them and no issues with durability whatsoever. Will be using them again for big days this season.

For what I use these for, they are absolutely the best. That is XCD - low angle laps in trees. They aren't really cross-country in any way. They are full-on downhill skis with scales. The design lacks touring efficiency that you might want for XC skiing, but makes up for that in sheer climbing and descending ability, and at a really light weight. They are skiable with leather boots in softer snows. Not a resort ski, but stiff and solid enough to handle rough conditions with plastic boots. The rocker on them is fabulous and they seem to provide a lot of tip pressure in east cost snows.

I thought I was never going to go with a skinny ski... but after a few failed trips on my XC skis, I decided to sell them. I saw this Objective BC and decided to give them a try. I wanted some metal edge skis with scales for some specific approaches... so got this and put tech bindings. Super lightweight and great for the purpose. Long traverses and approaches are just so fun now. I didn't have to deal with skins on a recent trip... and they are fun to travel. \nIt's probably not the best ski on soft powder conditions, but it was great on firm, packed trail and hard snow.
