Thumbnail Filmstrip of Voile HyperVector BC Skis Images
Kick, Glide, Conquer.
When heading deep into winter wilderness, you must choose your tools wisely—versatility is key: and the Voile HyperVector BC has that in spades. Can it do everything the HyperVector can, like climb and descend steep terrain, float through powder and carve hard pack? It sure can, but also it provides a clear answer to the dilemma when faced with terrain that is neither up nor down. No longer do you have to vacillate between stopping and putting your skins on or attempting, energy sapping, side-stepping/ herringbone technique to get over a short climb or flat section—you just kick-and-glide your way past the obstacles.
The traction pattern on the Voile HyperVector BC doesn’t replace your skins entirely; it just gives you another —very efficient— option when faced with gentle climbs, rolling terrain, long traverses and meadows.
Sure, you may feel a little drag on some descents. But after experiencing the versatility you get from a pair of skis that weight less than 6lbs, you’ll be kicking yourself for not trying them sooner.

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.

This ski have performed well for me in all snow conditions. Ensuring bases are waxed for snow conditions is a must to maximize glide and avoid glopping in warmer snow. Excellent for quickly moving across flat terrain or slightly inclined slopes without having to use skins.

I used to be a powder-hound but have evolved into a powder-snob and I love these skis.\nMy first Vectors were without scales and turned me on to what a true powder ski can do. My first pair of Vector BC's let me get around the backcountry better but were beat up when I bought them so buying a second pair 10 years later is a good investment. I also love the idea of some lighter boards even though my skis are usually covered in pounds of snow when I'm using them. The scales drag on hardback, but I know how to avoid hardback and the scales can be hard to wax and I was going to apply the DPS Phantom treatment to these in hopes of maximizing glide and preventing springtime glomping. \nThe only reason I own three pairs of essentially the same ski is because I haven't bought a fourth pair yet. I can't think of a better endorsement.

Just got my first pair and after 3 outings, I think the skis are fantastic. Crazy lightweight. Glide fine. Fast on the flats.

My first pair of HyperVector BC skis were left in India, I traded them for some freeze dried meals. Those skis had become my early/mid/late season skis. One tip had been glued back together a couple of seasons ago after an encounter with a tree and the bases and edges looked like they had had several confrontations with rocks, dead/downed trees and dirt. So, it was a fair trade. Upon arrival home, I saw that the same ski was on sale and purchased another pair. They are not a surfy ski in deep powder, but they do everything well and I like the pattern for long approaches and exits that have a mix low angle assents and descents. I also use the pattern for making changes in position - an easy 20 meters up and over a ridge with the pattern versus side stepping, or herring boning without the pattern. So I had an opportunity to trade my old skis for some Butter Paneer, Dal and Jeera rice and bought a new pair.

I bought these because I wanted some lighter-weight touring skis that also did well downhill. I added Switchback bindings to them. I am really enjoying the lightweight when touring. Very maneuverable. On downhills, they turn well . I wish the drag from the pattern was less, but it is about what I expected given the amount of pattern.
