Yo dudes, like maximum gnarlage!
I'm in Britain and I'm not at all a skater, but last night I saw a show on cable called "What were they thinking 2". It was footage of skaters, bladers and BMXers attempting outrageously dangerous stunts and getting them very wrong. It opened up with some almost unwatchably sickening footage of people breaking and dislocating limbs. It was awesome.
There was also a guy setting himself on fire and performing some skateboard halfpipe trick - he ended up with serious burns. And then some real lunatics attempting 30ft jumps onto concrete and smashing their heads. One guy permanently lost his sense of smell. The noise when his nut cracked onto the concrete was horrendous - but I have to confess I enjoyed it.
I loved the way after every horrific catastrophe the guy's friends would come over and tentatively ask "Er, dude - you ok?".
I was extremely impressed with the balls some of these young kiddies had.
Are you one of these fearless skinny American dudes who ends up on his baggy-trousered ass every 5 minutes?
If any of you are, I just wanted to hear your gnarliest stories - that is the point of this post.

A mass genocide of all skaters. Now that'd be gnarly.

I hit a kid with a skateboard once. It was pretty gnarly.

Well I was just kidding around with the language, but seeing as you mention it I bet you some skate dude HAS uttered those exact words. Mmm, skater dudes....

Gotta go with Dohnuts on this one. Never heard that phrase uttered by anyone who could even ollie.
You're one of those creepy older men who hang out at skate parks just to watch the skinny American boys in their baggy trousers get all sweaty, aren't you?

Skaters suck, but i'll spare you the minus 2 cause of the word gnarly.

In 19 years of skating, I have never once heard anyone say "Yo dudes, like maximum gnarlage!"
