Summary

Craig Murray, aka Weezy Davis, is arguably the best skier in the world. Fresh off a win at Travis Rice's Natural Selection, an event where Craig went head-to-head with the best big mountain skierrs in the world and showcased a different vision, speed and style than almost anyone else in the comp…But what's different about Craig is how humble he is. While skiing is something that he does and he's one of the best, he can easily get lost in the crowd off the hill because he has zero ego or need to be known.  He's one of those guys that's the best at what he's doing now, and at some point, he'll be the best at something else. He's smart, calculated, and who knows where life will take this guy. Finn Woods askes the Inappropriate Questions
