Thumbnail Filmstrip of Voile V6 Skis Images
The genotype of the perfect touring ski.
The Voilé V6 represents the epitome of versatility in a backcountry ski. It’s the go-to ski for backcountry tours in places where the snow conditions and terrain to be skied might be somewhat unknown beforehand.
Inspired by the Voilé V8, the V6 retains the wide shovel, round flex and taper of the V8, yet bundles everything up in a slimmer, lighter package. The V6 is also available in slightly-shorter lengths than the V8.
Incorporating the same layers of carbon and triaxial fiberglass into a more-narrow ski lends a snappier feel and quicker-edging trait to the V8. This feature, coupled with our beloved Voilé Hybrid Rocker, makes the V6 even more stable in a wide variety of conditions and terrain.
Backcountry skiers who put in long days will definitely appreciate the lighter weight and all-around performance of the V6 and may also regard it as their “everyday powder ski.”

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
Full Cap / Poplar / Carbon
Durable and damp poplar construction with triaxial fiberglass for uncompromising performance inbounds or off-piste. Lightweight without sacrificing downhill performance.
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.

Another pair of Voile skis? Yes, the regular V6 is my third pair of Voile skis. I weigh 170 lbs at 5`10``tall and ski the 178 cm length. This ski is magical for me, likely the perfect combo of my weight, height and ski length. How do I know? I have owned a pair of V6 BC for 7 seasons and fell in love with them for stability, ease of turning , nimbleness and a ton of fun. This ski will do well for you beginners and experts all. Hands down the most capable and fun ski I ever owned and will keep owning as long as I can ski in this lifetime (37 years of BC skiing and counting). The V6 is always my choice for all day big forays in the backcountry, because they are light and don`t require wide skins with more drag to wear me out. It is hands down my ski of choice if I could only have one pair. The third pair? , I also own a pair of super chargers they are my hero skis, but V6 rules for all around performance in all conditions. Thank you Voile!! Please never stop making the V6 ever!!

As all the marketing details say - these are surfy and fun. Great for making hippy/dad powder turns. I have the V6, Manti and V8. I use these the least. Although they are fun if it's soft I like the extra float of the V8 - although I get more faceshots with these.

From 2 feet of pow in Mass to icy chutes in Montana, this ski handles it all! No matter the conditions, my V6s have been reliable and so much fun to ski the past 3 seasons. I started out with 22 designs lynx bindings on them, then switched it up for the past couple seasons with AT bindings. Easy to turn in the trees, but still have enough backbone to hold high speed turns on groomers. They've been my go-to touring skis for the past 3 seasons for a reason!
