Thumbnail Filmstrip of Voile UltraVector BC Skis (White) Images
Your passport to the backcountry.
The Voilé UltraVector BC adds a Voilé Traction Pattern Base to the reliably-efficient UltraVector and helps the adventurous backcountry skier get even further into the hinterland—especially when a long approach is required.
The UltraVector BC does not eliminate the need to carry skins into the backcountry, but once at the apex, skiers can expect downhill turning akin to the original UltraVector on steeper slopes and get a buzz (hear a hum) on lesser slopes.
Perfomance Focus:
All Mountain + Mountaineering
Turn Personality:
Directional / Carving
Highlights:
• Lightweight but damp
• Stability at speed
• Telemark Compatible
• Scaled "Traction Pattern" BC base
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.
Classic BC
Full Cap / Poplar / Carbon / Traction Pattern Base
Durable and damp poplar construction with triaxial fiberglass for uncompromising performance inbounds or off-piste.
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.
Fiberglass Mounting Patch
Heel and toe mounting areas are reinforced to prevent binding pull-out during aggressive maneuvers through hard snow, effectively distributing the energy transferred between the skier and the ski. These skis are compatible with telemark bindings.
Voile Carbon-Weave
Voile Carbon-Weave combines the lightweight strength of carbon fiber with the durability of triaxial fiberglass. The strategic integration of carbon fiber into the ski's construction reduces 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.

Light, solid, and simple. This ski is exactly what I expected. I dig the white top sheet as I don't have to look at someone else's 'art', and enjoy simply leaving a beautiful track behind. I was hopeful about the fish scales, and they've turned out to work wonderfully. I can roam around easily on low angle terrain and traverse easily between terrain features to maximize my turns. I throw on skins to I head into steeper terrain and have no performance loss on the down. \nI'm a happy Voile rider!

Finally a setup that is so much more than just a cross country ski with edges. This ski has a waist width that is actually substantial enough for deep snow adventures. The fish scales give rolling terrain a run for their money. Add some additional climbing skins and really get to the top of the backyard. Love these and would even consider a pair mounted with Magnum NNN BC bindings, another with tele bindings, and maybe even a pair with some alpine tech bindings. There’s something for every adventure with these skis.

As soon as I got my Vectors I knew I wanted the Vector BC. Fast-forward a few years and I landed a pair of these beauties. They ski every bit as well as my Vectors, with the added benefit of not having to put on skins for the odd creek traverse or low-angle climb to a better line. With AT bindings on them I feel like there's nothing in the Northeast I can't do on these skis. I love the simple look of most Voilé skis, but these are on another level; and when folks inevitably ask what they are, I just say "vwahlay". :-)

This are a perfect backcountry ski for rolling terrain. I live in Ontario so I need a ski that could handle this type of terrain, more than just a regular cross country ski because I also have to go down hills that are as steep as an Alpine ski run but below the tree line. Some of our forests can be quite dense. Voile is the only company that makes a ski short enough with the fish scale pattern. These skis turn well, climb well and descend well. I tried the glide lite but the integrated skins are too sticky. The fish scale pattern is the only thing realistic for rolling terrain. Thanks for making these skis!!!

These skis have changed how, when and where I ski— for the better. The fish scales are far more efficient than skins, letting me go further with less effort. For exploring low angle terrain in northern New England, these skis are ideal. I paired them with ATK Trafeo bindings and Fischer Carbon Travers boots. I can cruise low angle terrain almost as well as Nordic, while still climbing steeper tracks (with skins). Performance on the downhill is soft (in a forgiving way), and pairs well with the Travers for power transmission. Float is sufficient— these excel in 6-12” , and can still hold their own when it gets deep. My wife was so jealous, she just bought herself a pair! \nFor reference: 5’10”, 190 lbs. 184cm
