About Us

Arguably the greatest club on campus, MUST has been bringing glory to each and every one of its members since its origins in 1994. Our philosophy is simple, ride like you haven't been out partying till 6AM that morning and party like you don't have to get up till sunset the next day for another round.

VIC IVS 2010 It started with the emergence of Snowboarding in Australia. As snowboards hit the slopes, a group of keen snowboarders, having tried the sport in Canada, wanted to promote snowboarding in Australia. Since the inception of MUST, the club has grown into one of the largest clubs on campus with over 300 members annually. We aim to offer benefits to each member, and to provide a community atmosphere for members to experience the fun of snowboarding.

MUST isn't just fun and games, however, we're also about WINNING. In 2010, on our way back to Melbourne from the National Australian University Championship Snow Sports, the bus was a lot heavier since we were carrying 6 out of the 9 trophies available in the competition, riding against the best and brightest boarders from universities across Australia. As overall winners, we beat the likes of MONASH (by heaps), Sydney Uni and Macquarie Uni which we've done numerous times in the past and will continue to do indefinitely.

At the University of Melbourne we take our sport seriously, and that's why at every competition we ride hard and fast, value each one of our members and take the time to get to know everyone (some more than others) at our insane parties and pub nights. It's not about train or die, it's about meeting people, having fun and snagging some trophies on the way. With all our social events and trips to the snow, you'll feel like part of the team in no time; it doesn't matter if you're the ultimate beginner or seasoned pro. Our members are happy to give you some tips and advice about riding, and feel free to ask us anything or lend us your ideas for improving the club.

Members benefit from our own Equipment Hire Service that has seen a significant improvement in quality gear recently. We have boards, boots, wrist guards and helmets for all sizes and levels of riders, and offer a reliable, cheap service to members. For rates, please see the Hire Gear page.

Meet the Committee

Executive Committee

  • Ivan Corro Ivan Corro
    President
    Mild-mannered post-graduate student by day, Luchadore by night. Those that once were able to verify this fact are no longer of this world.
  • Andrew Tandoc Andrew Tandoc
    Treasurer, IT Manager
    When this young man isn't in his XL snowboard attire, you can probably spot him around campus sporting his one-size-too-small cycling lycra.
  • Harriet Deans Harriet Deans
    Secretary
    In 2010, Harriet broke her arm on the slopes at Mt Hotham. In 2011, she's returned for some pay back. This time it's personal.

General Committee

  • Nick Finch Nick Finch
    Hire Manager
    With a resting heart rate of 30bpm, one wonders if we accidentally voted a zombie onto the MUST committee. His HR picks up in turtle mating season, though.
  • Beth Yule Beth Yule
    Hire Manager
    Soon after Beth joined the staff at Borders Australia, the bookselling chain was put under administration. Coincidence? We think not.
  • Alexandra Lockie Alexandra Lockie
    Racing Representative
    Alex is all about safety when it comes to shredding. Protect your noggin from a knockin', on the slopes and Après-ski (or board, in our case).
  • Marija Buljan Marija Buljan
    Events Manager
    When she's not planning MUST's spectacular events, Marija can be found correcting the rest of us on the pronunciation of her name.
  • Tom Hayes Tom Hayes
    Social Representative
    Sure his birth name is Tom, but don't be too confused when you see us call him Edward, as in the (so-called) sexy Dracula.
  • Fraser Saunders Fraser Saunders
    Social Representative
    On the last MUST social trip, a first year went missing in the bad weather conditions on the mountain. Turns out he was just lost in Fraser's hair.
  • Nicole Hart Nicole Hart
    Publications
    With no enviable snowboarding skills as of yet, she has high hopes of one day being able to stay upright whilst exiting a ski lift.
  • Matthew Chamberlain Matthew Chamberlain
    General Committee
    Don't be fooled by this man's apparent halo, he's no angel. Though you may think he has wings when see him on a snowboard.
  • Nicole Blanks Nicole Blanks
    General Committee
    This committee member rides as fast as this bio ends. 'Nuff said.
