Voile makes skis with two different camber profiles: Hybrid Rocker and Early-Rise Camber.
The V6 has the Hybrid. The Ultravector has the Early-Rise.
Other than the V6 = Snowshoes, I would tend to agree with most of what you said about the skis.

For a given ski length, the Hybrid results in a shorter Running Length than the Early-Rise.
