Voile HyperVector Alpine Touring Ski - 759948917924

The Voile HyperVector should be on the short list for "best all mountain touring skis". Boasting a lightweight and durable combination of paulownia wood and carbon fiber that sheds upwards of 15% weight, the Hyper series gets you deep into the backcountry.

With a moderate waste and nimble turning radius, the Hyper Vector performs well in tight spots such as dense trees or narrow couloirs while early rise in the tip helps the ski float on deeper days. Camber underfoot delivers energy along the length of the ski keeping you glued to the mountain all day long (if that's what you're looking for... of course). The Vector has been a staple of versatility in the ski touring world and we are excited at the upgrades Voile has made to this backcountry weapon.

Maintenance Tips

• Wax the ultra-light composite/sintered base regularly to maintain fast glide and prevent drying.
• Use a softer wax more frequently in cold/dry snow to reduce drag on lightweight touring setups.
• Keep edges sharp but not overly aggressive to balance grip with energy-efficient skinning.
• Dry skis completely after each tour to prevent corrosion on edges and binding interfaces.
• Inspect mounting points often; lightweight touring skis benefit from frequent screw tightness checks.
• Repair base scratches immediately with P-Tex to protect the thin, high-performance base structure.
• Avoid heat exposure (cars, direct sun, heaters) to preserve camber and material integrity.
• Store with a light storage wax in a cool, dry environment during off-season.
