Voile HyperVector BC Alpine Touring Skis - 5305-154-2526

When you're heading deep into the winter wilderness, you must choose your tools wisely. The Voile HyperVector BC has the versatility to handle it all. It can climb and descend steep terrain, float through powder, and carve hardpack. But where it really shines is on those long approaches over rolling terrain and meadows. With a scaled "Traction Pattern" BC base underfoot, you no longer have to stop and put on your skins to get over a small climb or flat section. You can simply kick and glide your way past the obstacles, saving time and energy.

This ski is a lightweight climbing machine that's equally designed for downhill muscle. It shares the same performance focus as the standard HyperVector, delivering a directional, hard-carving feel with an aggressive edge-to-edge feel. With a long running length and a less pronounced sidecut, this ski provides strong edging ability when driving fast and steep. Its ultralight construction makes it easy to get to the top, and once you're there, you'll be able to handle any descent confidently.

What our Experts Think

• A lightweight all-mountain BC touring ski designed for strong uphill efficiency and confident downhill performance across varied terrain.
• Part of the HyperVector BC series, featuring a paulownia wood core with carbon/fiberglass construction for reduced weight and high stability.
• ~90–98mm waist (depending on length) delivers a balanced blend of float in soft snow and precision on firmer backcountry conditions.
• Directional “carving” shape with long running length enhances edge hold and control at speed on steeper terrain.
• Early-rise tip + camber underfoot makes turn initiation easy while maintaining strong grip and stability on variable snow.
• Built for skiers who want a true one-ski touring solution for powder, corn, windboard, and mixed alpine conditions.
• Lightweight enough for big vertical days, yet damp and composed enough for technical descents and longer traverses.
• Best suited to experienced backcountry skiers prioritizing efficiency + control over playful surf-style skiing.

                   
Q&A    

Q: What makes the Voile HyperVector BC Alpine Touring Ski unique?
A: The HyperVector BC combines Voile’s ultralight Hyper construction (paulownia wood core + double carbon layup) with a traction-pattern (scaled) base, giving efficient glide on rolling terrain while reducing uphill transition frequency.

Q: Who is the HyperVector BC best suited for?
A: It’s designed for backcountry skiers and ski mountaineers who want a lightweight, efficient touring ski that still performs well on descents across variable snow conditions.

Q: How does it perform on the climb?
A: Very efficient—its low weight reduces fatigue on long approaches, while the scaled base improves kick-and-glide on mellow terrain and traverses.

Q: Do I still need skins with the HyperVector BC?
A: Yes. The traction pattern helps on low-angle travel, but skins are still required for steep, icy, or sustained ascents.

Q: How does it ski on the descent?
A: It’s a directional, stable ski with strong edge hold, a cambered midsection for power on firm snow, and enough tip rocker to handle powder confidently.

Q: What type of terrain is it best for?
A: It excels in mixed backcountry terrain—rolling approaches, alpine touring routes, corn, and firm snow—while still being capable in soft powder when conditions line up.
