Ride Feel
Ten opzichte of de standaard Spartan scheert the Ascent honderden grammen — vooral merkbaar under voeten. De ride feel blijft playful, switch-capable and drijvend in powder, which the Spartan bekend maakte. Een solid optie for rijders that de vertrouwde Spartan-geometry willen in a gewichtsgeoptimaliseerde verpakking.

The Voile Spartan Ascent 154cm is Voile’s dedicated touring board — narrower, lighter, and more efficient on the skin track than the Revelator. Flex 6, designed for riders 55–72 kg who prioritise touring efficiency and long-day performance over maximum descent capability.
