Thumbnail Filmstrip of Voile V6 BC Skis Images
The genotype of the perfect touring ski.
Never a slave to orthodoxy, Voilé Manufacturing has always been on the forefront of creative thinking and unusual ideas to help improve the backcountry skiing experience.
So when we asked ourselves how we might further modify the already-marvelous, incredibly-versatile V6, the answer seemed obvious: Take it fishing. And that’s exactly what we did—not for trout, bass or crappie—but by adding fish-like scales to its base, a feature we’ve dubbed the “Voilé Traction-Pattern Base.”
The Voilé V6 BC represents Voilé’s third foray into the domain of scaled-base skis, as preceded by the Vector BC and Charger BC. Admittedly, such skis are not for everyone or every variety of slope. That said, for the backcountry skier who must continually make long approaches over undulating terrain, the V6 BC’s can be a welcome godsend.
Thanks to the same lightweight Poplar core and carbon-fiber construction as the V6, as well as our signature Voilé Hybrid Rocker, the V6 BC will still impress when skiing steeper downhill pitches.
And who’s gonna argue in favor of the tedium of applying and removing skins too often?

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.

Voile Hybrid Rocker
An intuitive, surf-like turn personality makes this a very easy ski to operate. Playful and responsive, with a turn radius on the tighter side. This ski is characterised as relaxed and easy-going.
Tip: Hybrid rocker tip and wide shovel provide unmatched float in powder.
Waist: Shorter running length with extended contact points. Engineered for agility. Cambered underfoot for stability.
Tail: Tapered hybrid rocker tail for smooth maneuverability in variable 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.

Love this ski, I have it in addition to a pair of Ultravector BCs, and this is the ski I go for in right spots and soft snow. The turns are just effortless with this ski, and they unhook from a tele turn really, really nice! If I am skiing for safety, and not speed, this is my choice every time.
I’ve got mine paired with 22D Axls and scarpa t2 ecos. The set up is a little on the heavy side but man it just skis so we’ll!

This is such a great BC ski! One I've been skiing for 10+ years now. It's an especially good ski in rolling terrain where you might be descending, to contouring, to rolling, to more descending before you have to skin up again. A light, strong, predictable powder ski and a go to ski from my quiver. Thank you Voile

I use this ski for everything. I've got it setup for telemark skiing right now but have also used it with AT bindings. It's wide enough to ski deep powder but also works great in most other conditions. The fish scales are really nice for long approaches or exits. I even ski the local ski hill in the these and it's a dream getting my little kiddos to the lifts as I can just tow them along the track to the lift lines - much easier than skating around. Highly recommend.
