Gnarly!

Gnarly is a 70's surfer term meaning a wave that's big but without good form for riding. Then it came to mean beyond radical, beyond definition, among the young surfers.

 

It originally meant old, knotted and twisted. So this gnarly is a good mix, it's old and twisted and beyond radical. The form is atrocious!

 

It's gnarlier on black!
