Everything was perfect, ordered my Voile insane 183 with inserts through the chat now function, see chat thread

"Jg: Hi, I have a pair of G3 ascent bindings, will they fit the inserts on the voile insanes?
BC.com: Not sure. Let me check with one of the skiiers. : )
Jg: roger
BC.com: I'm sorry for the delay. I'll be right with you.
Jg: no worries, take ur time
BC.com: Should be good with those"

and

"BC.com.: Those are the Voile insanes?
Jg: yes, 183 with inserts"

and

"BC.com: Is there anything else I can help you with?
Jg: Summarize for me real quick: voile insanes 183 with inserts, approx ship date?
BC.com: should get there within 5 days or so"

And there they were waiting me on the porch when I got home from work, grabbed the skis and the bindings and my kid and a beer went outside to open, marvel, and mount them up for the planned trip to Butler Gulch tomm. Unfortunately, they sent the flat deck AT versions, not the inserts. Maybe I didnt mention inserts when i ordered? Hmmm or Maybe I should have said it one more time
.
So, I called spoke with a rep who needed to ask the "ski guru" what was the deal, the guru said just mount the tele binding up to the top sheet. Despite VOILE, that recommends tele bindings be mounted only with inserts and the large warning sticker on the top sheet. "Telemark bindings with inserts only"

Ah well, no worries, done lots of business with BC.com and theyll square it away, right ---- wrong. Thought they may send me the correct ski - nope, dont carry it. Maybe they would get someone to ride his fixie or 1972 Schwinn psuedo crusier over to VOILE to switch out, get the right ski and send - nope, dont do small transactions like that only large volume.
So Im left with a return and a credit, perhaps Wasatch touring or Bent Gate or Voile wont be such a cluster, in the meantime Ill take my volume somewhere else and tomm go ride a bike.

These are the Best Skis I have ever owned.
I have them mounted with Voile Switchback bindings and wear Scarpa T2X Boots.
They are very light and very stable.
I fill so in control and confident on these skis and they are so fun to ski that I have a hard time using my other skis.
The Voile Switchback bindings are also the best I have ever owned.

We bought these skis for telemark bindings. They were supposed to have inserts. The backcountry.com website was misleading and we ended up with AT skis (flatdeck). It was a pain and very frustrating but they did take the skis back and we bought them from someone else. If you get these skis with inserts for telemark bindings make sure the gear shop has not removed the 18mm screws that should be attached to the skis (the correct screws do not come with the voile bindings). The screws are an odd size and you can't get them at most hardware stores. We learned the hard way with these skis but so far they were worth the headaches.

Finally got on a pr of these after looking at em for seasons. You first notice the lightness, then you wonder if it will hold speed. No worries; it does. And it turns easily and yet maintains stability over a variety of surfaces. I had great turns through 8" powder, 3-4" mank, and on dusted groomers. Wish Voile made a 190.

A fantastic ski. They float like mad, are stiff enough to handle speed with ease, and the side cut makes em rediculously manuverable. I have yet to have them get pushed around due to their light weight. I got the 183, which is considerably bigger than my 170ish all mountain skis, and they have been no issue at all. they almost feel more manueverable, which i really think is due to the side cut. The ski hooks a little when turning on hardpack, but who cares... they are made for powder.

They rip in the pow pow, and are just a blast to ride. Love em.

Insane 183, 7Tm power tour, crispi XR...WOW. Super in deep powder, stable at Hi speed in tracked stuff. Turny in the tree and good on hard pack with this small radius. This is my every day option! Very light for it size and resonnably stiff. The 150mm shovel keep your ski out of snow.
