How do you improve on an award-hogging ski design?
You make it lighter.
Introducing the Voile Hyper V8. The beloved shape and camber profile remain unchanged, but the rest of the ski has been overhauled. Starting with the core, we switched to paulownia wood from aspen. We’ve doubled the amount of carbon fiber and re-enforced the binding mounts to account for the lighter core. Finally, it’s all wrapped up in a sharp new graphic made from the most durable and snow/ice-phobic topsheet material we use.
You still get the irony-filled performance of the original Voile V8: Brawny, yet agile—fat, but featherweight. It has the width to float the deepest powder—yet remains quick edge-to-edge for all those non-powder days. It maintains a high fun-factor even in less than perfect conditions. It’s all of those things—just much lighter.
The Hyper V8 is a culmination of little changes to create a brand new award-winning high-performance ski. Same… but different… and still awesome.

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

I bought a pair of these just in time some seriously deep days and I haven't stopped smiling since! These are remarkably light for how well they ski, and they ski remarkably nimble for how fat they are. They are a supreme confidence booster; these things practically ski themselves. I was a little skeptical about the forward mounting position, but figured the designers knew better than me. Mount them at the recommended spot and enjoy your life! These are now my go-to skis for anything with even a touch of soft snow. They handle ice and hardpack better than you expect, but they are clearly not the best tool for that by design. I mounted them with ATK Raiders and couldn't be happier with this setup.\n\nIf you're looking for a powder ski that is equally fun in playful low angle trees as well as the steep and deep, just get a set of these and you'll see what I'm raving about!

The shape of the V8 is one of the best I have ever been on. This ski can charge hard and remain playful in deep snow. At a feathery 1500 grams, I have no hesitation in taking this ski out on a long tour. Despite the featherweight construction, I have gotten some dingers that really show the supreme durability of skis. 11/10

It's incredible...I own the regular V8 186 cms and Voile guys managed to keep all the qualities of the V8 but lighter. Stable, nimble, fun and easy turning, can ride any snow conditions. The front rocker is perfect, allowing you to ride very deep snow with the combination to hold edge on hard or icy snow. In south of France, recently we had weird temperatures and I had to ride on spring snow and refrozen and finally blue ice in the same run at the end the HyperV8 gave me a big smile and I was amazed how these skis managed everything easily. It's like to have 120 underfoot in powder and 100 underfoot on hard snow. Thanks Voile and never stop the V8s and HyperV8s please.

Absolutely love the days out when I have my HyperV8 skis. I mean it often means it's a powder day so yeah it's gonna be a good day... but even on the non-deep pow days this is honestly the best ski touring ski I've ever had. Beautifully shaped with perfect dimensions which offers an easy turn yet can charge as hard as you need them to. As a 200 Ibs advanced skier I have always stayed far away from light carbon fiber skis, yet I am very impressed with Voile's Hyper series skis. I'm grateful that they come in a 193cm length for us taller folks. Good quality long ski touring skis are hard to come by.

This is my first pair of Voile skis and I have one season on them. I am very impressed with them. The forward-mounting position helps to keep you on top while breaking trail in soft snow and either the color or material of the top sheet keeps snow from accumulating. Both of these attributes make them very efficient at moving through the mountains in deep snow. They also stay composed on harder snow better than other light, fat skis I have tried. And they make powder skiing effortless as expected. So far, there are no signs of any durability issues and the bases hold wax nicely. I'm looking forward to skiing more deep powder on them in seasons to come!
