RMIT University Snow Sports - RUSS

Welcome to RUSS! The club at RMIT with regular events, trips and parties throughout the snow and sun.

RMIT University Snow Sports (RUSS)

Welcome to the only club at RMIT dedicated to everything Winter! As the name suggests, we are dedicated to building skills and friendships on and off the ski fields in Australia and rest of the world

We cater to every skill level and provide opportunities to learn, practice, travel and compete during the snowy months! Snow Business:

We run ski trips as soo

n as the snow appears, and have several big trips starting from the mid-year holidays in July right through to the last day of the season that are perfect for anyone looking to improve their skills, compete as well as making some great friends and having unforgettable experiences

The fields we will be travelling to include Mt Buller, Mt Hotham, Falls Creek, Mt Baw Baw and through our friends at I Like To Party, RUSS members can enjoy the snow of Queenstown and Japan along with many other students from around Australia. Après:

Don't be mistaken, RUSS members love the off-snow life as much as riding itself. Being a RUSS member gives you access to our social calendar that is as big as our snow one. Be sure to like our page to stay up to date with club activities by clicking here

So what are you waiting for? Join today to get access to all of this and ensure you have an epic winter, as 2017 is shaping up to be the most awesome year for RUSS so far! Find our "Group" for member communications here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/RMIT.RUSS/

Legs burning, catcher car chasing and literal litres of Redbull being consumed… last Sunday RUSS took part in the Wings For Life World Run !!

A total of 594.53 km were run and a whopping $1483.98 was raised - with every cent going towards research to find a cure for spinal cord injuries

A MASSIVE team of 40 runners also meant that RUSS was rewarded the $1,000 bar tab for having the most sign-ups of any university snow sports club in Melbourne!!

Major thanks and congratulations are in order for everyone that came out and raced against the catcher car!! Such an amazing effort from everyone that got involved 🙌🙌
