The Voile Endeavor is a lightweight touring ski built in Utah on a poplar core with Voile Carbon-Weave and triaxial fiberglass, wrapped in a full cap with full-contact steel edges. At 82 mm underfoot in the 171, with an early-rise tip and camber underfoot, it is a quick, efficient shape for long days on the skin track.
The trade-off for that low weight and narrow waist is float. In deep, heavy snow a wider ski will stay on top more easily, and the Endeavor rewards a skier who likes to stay light and move fast rather than plow through crud.
It is a great fit for touring skiers who cover a lot of ground, spring missions and firm conditions where edge grip matters more than width. If you want a climbing assist without skins on rolling terrain, look at the Endeavor BC with its scale base.
This is the 23/24 graphic in the 171 cm length. In person the topsheet reads slightly greener than pictured, grey with sea-green stripes. The 171 measures 115/82/99 mm with an 18.5 m turn radius and weighs 2,713 g per pair.
We love the Endeavor for long tours where every gram counts, and it is a fun, nimble ski when the snow firms up on the way down.

This guide is for alpine (downhill) skis. Ski length depends on your height, your ability, and how you like to ski. Use this chart as a starting point, then talk to us about the ski itself: rocker, width, and turn shape all change how long a ski feels.

Quick Rule
- Beginner: ski tip around your chin. Shorter skis turn easily.
- Intermediate: tip between your nose and forehead.
- Advanced: tip around the top of your head, for stability at speed.
- Expert: about 5cm longer than advanced, for hard charging and big-mountain terrain.
Adjust For
- Go longer: heavier build, fast skiing, deep snow, lots of tip rocker.
- Go shorter: lighter build, tight trees and moguls, uphill touring.
- Telemark: if you want a ski for tele, we recommend going down about 10cm from the length you normally like.
