Perfection, Perfected.
Progress of this magnitude doesn’t happen overnight, but the wait has proven worth it.
These skis are no mere iteration—they are the embodiment of Voile’s commitment to constant improvement: borne out of patience, precision, and our desire to craft the perfect backcountry ski.
The ACE sidewall and maple patch construction makes these Vectors lighter, stronger, and more responsive than ever—a monumental achievement, given that their predecessors were already the go-to choice for couloirs and corn season. They distinguish themselves with impeccable edge control, superior dampening, and the agility to tackle the toughest descents with grace.
They’re skis that turn every condition into an opportunity and every challenge into a victory. The Vector just graduated from truly reliable to utterly remarkable.

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.
ACE Series
Partial Cap with Continuous Sidewall / Paulownia / Double Carbon / Maple Mounting Patch
Ultralight, and yet our dampest ski platform. A paulownia core with continuous sidewall for improved edging ability and a maple mounting patch for unmatched binding security.
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.
Continuous TPU Sidewall
Continuous sidewall construction not only enhances the structural integrity of the ski but also serves as a crucial element in dampening vibrations, resulting in a smoother and more stable ride. It ensures consistent flex throughout the ski, promoting a balanced and predictable performance across various snow conditions and terrain types.
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.
Maple Mounting Patch
A maple mounting patch offers unparalleled binding pullout resistance, ensuring that bindings remain securely attached to the ski during aggressive maneuvers and high-speed descents. Additionally, the maple mounting patch enhances the durability and longevity of the ski, effectively distributing stress and preventing damage over time. Telemark compatible.
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.
