Name: Tim Amos
Position: Secretary
Course / Year: 5^th year Engineering/Science
Most embarrassing MUSKI moment: Losing my watch at Vic IVs then finding it 2 days later in the fridge. I spent the rest of the weekend listening to everyone say, “Oh, you're the idiot who left their watch in the fridge!”
Best skiing memory: 4 foot of fresh powder at Val d'Isere. Either that or any one of the 4 or so times Courtney has broken his skis.

Name: Evgeny Kuznetsov
Position: Treasurer, Race Representative
Course / Year: 3^rd year Commerce
Most embarrassing MUSKI moment: I thought I’d try snowboarding. I borrowed some gear and went out by myself. I was almost dead in the dangerous conditions, but then three blonde Red Bull girls from the night before came and helped me down the hill. Then I had to call the ski lodge and get someone to come and rescue me from Burke St.
Best skiing memory: Winning my first GS race in Russia when I was 12. I was coming fourth after the first run, but after the second run I beat the guy coming third, and the top two skiers didn’t finish their second run. So I defaulted to first place.
Have you ever snowboarded? Yes. I may even do it again, if I can find those three Red Bull girls…

Name: Matthew Halkyard

Course / Year: 3^rd year Property and Construction/Commerce
Most embarrassing MUSKI moment: It’s more of a awkward/disturbing moment, but sleeping in the same room as two people bumping uglies without realizing it.
Best skiing memory: Skiing Japan’s waist-deep powder. There’s nothing like it.
Have you ever snowboarded? What’s snowboarding?

Name: Bonnie Levinge

Course and Year: 1^st year Master of Applied Commerce – International Business
Most embarrassing MUSKI moment: Face planting on the d-floor at the Koroora, in a toga.
Best skiing memory: 2006 at Big White; a run called rollercoaster. It was all up and down and up and down... Bit hairy but so much fun.
Have you ever snowboarded? Yes. It was a disaster. I was on my arse all day! I cracked the shitake mushrooms and slid down on my bot bot.

Name: Steph Wallace-Rolley
Position: Social Representative
Course / Year: 3^rd year Arts
Most embarrassing MUSKI moment: Being sticky taped to a MUSKI girl in Kooroora, Buller Week ’06, and being offered a threesome by an old man who said "How about two for the price of one? Oh and you’re already tied up... Fantastic."
Best skiing memory: Buller Week ’06! I with my best friend, I met awesome MUSKI people, I played drinking games and danced at Kooroora every night... Was the best snow experience ever, made up of a once in a lifetime group of hilarious and fun people (who also happened to be really, really ridiculously good looking).
Have you ever snowboarded? Yes… In fact that should have been my most embarrassing MUSKI moment - it resulted in me straddling a ski-hire guy named Matt 5 feet from where I hired the stupid thing.

Name: Paul Rogers
Course / Year: 2^nd year Arts
Most embarrassing MUSKI moment: Dressing up for Slopestyle in VIC IVs last year. Put on a fluro one-piece suit, wore a cape, wore retro pink sunglasses and a pink headband over my helmet. I completed the event sitting down and riding a box wielding a sword.
Best skiing memory: Powder skiing in Canada when I was twelve and attempting to do a natural half pipe with my eyes closed. Guess how that ended.
Tried Snowboarding: Heck no. I’m not crossing to the dark side!

Name: Caitlin Bonwick
Position: Publicity & Promotions
Course / Year: 3^rd year Arts/Science
Most embarrassing MUSKI moment: First MUSKI training session, pulled a tremendous stack in front of the entire team in the "show us what you’ve got" run, sending both my boots and poles into the neighbouring run! Impressive....
Best skiing memory: Winning VICs of course, AND the many Jäger shots that followed!
Have you ever snowboarded? Just the once, and it ended in concussion… Probably won’t happen again.

Name: Haydn Robins
Position: Publications
Course / Year: 3^rd year Arts

Have you ever snowboarded? Hell to the yes, and I recommend it.

Best skiing memory: Arriving in Japan in 2003 and being one of the first Aussies to hike the peak at Niseko and ski down in neck deep powder.
