Thumbnail Filmstrip of Voile Women's Hyper Manti Skis Images
Say hello to your new power tools.
These are far more than a powder ski. They’re absolutely capable of capturing the whimsy of a hallmark winter whiteout... But with edges deployed, the Manti are skis engineered for a swift response and an authoritative turn.
The early rise tip and gradual tail rocker effect a tolerant and playful performance, and they’re paired with a sidecut that is prepared to act decisively when put on a de-cambered edge. The result is a ski that intuitively magnifies the intentions of its pilot, whether those aims be graceful and surf-like or precise and assertive.
Thanks to the weight shed by a svelte paulownia core, the Women’s Hyper Manti conserves your power during long uphill pursuits. That said, it’s best to cross the starting gate with time to spare; with legs this fresh you’ll find yourself rationalizing “just one more” lap.

Voile Hybrid 2.0
A versatile, slarving turn personality makes this ski very maneuverable. Floaty and surf-like until put on edge, at which point it carves decisively. This ski is characterised as adaptable and multifaceted.
Tip: Early-rise tip and wide shovel provide excellent float in powder.
Waist: Medium running length with extended contact points. Engineered for agility. Cambered underfoot for stability.
Tail: Minimal taper and gradual tail rocker makes for a quick response when put on edge and contributes to the ski's ability to make purchase in hardpack.
Hyper Series
Full Cap / Paulownia / Double Carbon
Ultralight paulownia construction that shaves nearly a pound per pair for easier ascents.
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.
Easy Ski for Many Conditions
I'm quite happy with the HyperManti for an all-around ski when the snow isn't ultra deep, but still requires some floatation (in mid winter, I'll still reach for my Hyper V8s, and in the spring I'll be on Objectives). The Hyper Manti holds its own and stays afloat in powder, but is also a great alternative for crusty or variable conditions. I've gotten knocked off balance in cruddy variable, but the HyperManti made it easy to recover. It holds an edge better than the V8, but is easier to turn than a flat-tailed ski. I find it's inclined to short, poppy turns, but it will also open up if you choose to. Of course, it's light and easy on the uphills. I think the sweet spot for me would be a slightly longer ski (168cm), but the 164 is the best option Voile offers for my size and skiing style.
