    Voile Hyper V-Tail Splitboard

    See you in Hokkaido.


    From the wild ranges of North America to the mythic Japanese islands — snow surfers the world over have a new reason to celebrate. Introducing the Voile Hyper V-Tail, a powder surfing machine built for the deepest days. Its wide rockered nose and V shaped tail mean serious business, coacting to keep you afloat in otherwise chokable powder. It has a medium flex and long running length, with enough camber underfoot to provide purchase on steeper slopes and firm snow. These all combine to make surprisingly easy work of long uphill treks in search of the best lines.

    When massive storm cycles unload their goods, the Hyper V-Tail’s wake is an arcing wave of heavenly powder. Your most sedate friends would become aroused at the display, but alas: there are no friends on powder days. An ultra-lightweight paulownia core and Voile carbon weave construction mean that you abandoned them on the approach miles ago. But hey, at least you broke trail for them, right?

    Perfomance Focus:
    Poweder + All Mountain

    Turn Personality:
    Nimble / Surf-like

    Highlights:
    • Ultralight touring
    • Exceptional float

    Shape & Profile


    Voile Hyper V-Tail Splitboard Camber Profile

    Ultralight


    Full Cap / Paulownia / Double Carbon
    Ultralight paulownia construction that shaves nearly a pound for easier ascents.

    Icon

    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.

    Icon

    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.

    Icon

    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.

    Icon

    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.

    Icon

    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.

    Icon

    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.

    Jaw dropping
    Wanna carry 2x as much speed in pow? Buy this thing. I hit 30mph on a 20 degree slope yesterday in-between face shots. Thing is nutz. If there’s any chance of freshies I bring this, though I do have a different board for coulior/ice conditions. I’m 5’11 215 and ride the 180.. the moment new graphics come out I’m buying a 190 as well. Can’t have two matching boards

    My new favorite board!
    My new favorite board! I have it in a 190cm and it is an absolute blast to ride, for reference, I'm 5'10 and I typically ride a 164w in a non v-tail board. Obviously the hyper-v excels in deep powder but it also is great on corn, and for carving on groomers if taken to the resort. In the 190cm size, this board is most at home in open fields of powder but it is still very maneuverable in the trees of the backcountry zones of 'vermont' that I frequent.

    V Tail Split board
    I live in Hokkaido Japan the Japow Capital . I guide here in the backcountry and have been using Volie splitboards as my main touring board for years. 3 years ago I bought the 180 Hyper Vtail split instant love for this board touring is easy and just eats all terrain from steep and deep to tight trees and crud handles it all with ease ! Looking forward to stepping into the new model and going up to 190 as the 180 rides like a hard 165 or so ! So Im looking for more float and fun ! look out to all my clients they will be wanting to up grade as well once they see how good it is !

    Thing Shreds!!!
    Bought this thing during our mega February powder month and it made me fall in love with snowboarding all over again. Rails long radius turns or swivels like a fish through the trees. Holds it's own in the firm steeps as well. Absolutely a blast of a ride! Plus it came with canted pucks!!!! Voile nailed it with this thing! Also, it's pretty fun to silly ski on. 😂

    Go loooong!
    I've been snowboarding since the 90's and have lusted after a big gun swallowtail for just about as long. Last winter with COVID lockdowns swirling, I finally bit the bullet and ordered a V-tail 180 for the deep days. I live in Vermont and figured I'd take this bad boy out a handful of times a year, relying on my other splits (Spartan 166 and Revelator BC 165) for more "normal" tours. The first time I stepped onto the V-tail, however, that all changed. Not surprisingly, this board floats incredibly in deep powder. You know that just by looking at it. What surprised me was how light it feels on my feet in tour mode, how well the balance and extra length helps skinning through tight 'schwack, and perhaps most of all, how well it holds an edge and rips turns on hard snow. My main solid board is a Jones Hovercraft 164, and the V-tail 180 has the same sidecut radius, making it feel instantly familiar. If you like hauling ass and dragging a hand on every carved turn, definitely consider adding a V-tail to your quiver. It will spray huge pow plumes out the back when it's deep, and it will make a surprise fresh 4" feel like a foot. It doesn't feel huge at all, even in tight trees (at least not compared to my usual 164-166 boards) and it tours better than any other split I've had the pleasure to click into. Two quibbles: first, the size chart suggest 200lbs as the top for the 180 size. I weigh 200 and with pack and gear am pushing 220 at least, more on overnight tours. I do wonder just a little what the 190 feels like, but don't feel that I'm overpowering the 180 at all. There's clearly a psychological barrier with any board over 170, but if you're in my weight range, I can recommend the 180 highly. Second, the graphics are not my favorite, although they do look better in person than online. Voile has kept the same (more or less) graphic style for years now, and I personally feel like a few nice solid colors (like my old Mojo 171!) would be a better fit, but hey, whatever. Most of the time I'm riding the V-tail all I'm seeing is face shots anyway.

    Soft snow killer!
    It's all been said before, but I'll let you in on the real secret of the Hyper-V : this board crushes weak layered continental snowpack with ease. That means in shit conditions you can still float like a butterfly and sting like a bee. Go big with the sizing - you will not be disappointed.

    Floats like a butterfly, stings like a bee
    As others have said, this board is amazing in pow, but it can also handle hard pack no problem. It is surprisingly versatile. Don't be afraid to size up from a traditionally shaped snowboard either. I own the 180 cm and it is perfect for deep days. You will be thanking yourself for the extra length when you have to stick to low angle terrain on high avy danger days.

    More than just a pow shape
    I've owned four Voile boards over the last decade, three of which were swallowtails. Swallowtails are the only shape I've ridden for the past many years, no need for anything else and nothing else provides the same feel. Of course YMMV Currently on a V-Tail BC 170 as my daily driver and a vintage 'One Ninety Five' for snorkel days or just wanting to fly fast. When considering weight + performance + durability + price, there is no better value in a split swallowtail. Weight - Good Performance - Excellent Durability - Bomber Price - Stellar Usability - stupid simple Whats old is new... Not to mention, Voile has been making swallys for a long time, not just following the current pow board revival. For that I'm eternally grateful to them that I've been able to get reasonably priced boards that work well and are built where I live.

    The best pow board Ive ever ridden
    The title says it all. This is the most fun powder board I've ever ridden. Shorter lengths for tree and 190 for big AK faces this board can do it all. The nose is practically unsinkable. Needless to say this isnt a board for hardpack but whos out there hoping for icy anyways?!
