“Bruh, is Joe a pro? Anyway, this guy sends the gnar.”.After showcasing his death-defying skills, Joe would hear the following at the bar: The challenges usually involved little to no clothes. If Joe was to shred the gnar, Joe would search for opportunities to prove that he is indeed the best skier on the mountain by launching off large cliffs and skiing steep terrain butt-naked. Here’s an example illustrating the use of GNAR. It was a legendary game where self-proclaimed “pro” skiers would complete perilous, cool and ridiculous challenges on the slopes of the Squaw Valley Resort high in the Sierra Nevada Range of California. From my understanding, it was formed by Rob & Scott Gaffney who created the Game of G.N.A.R ( Gaffney’s Numerical Assessment of Radness) to parody the inherent cockiness of the early 2000s ski industry. The word’s origins are mysterious and source dependant.
It’s the perfect blend of danger and coolness in the context of skiing. Now it’s an icon, a word idolized and often misused by skiers and snowboarders from around the globe. The glossary words include a convenient tooltip directly in the post (i.e cornice). In this modern age, you don’t even have to consult the glossary to view the definition. Want to know more cool words? I’ve created a nifty glossary with new content added on a weekly basis.
