mack_turtle Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 I don't know who started using this term first, but the video channel calls a ride or trail that is "slow, unforgiving and brutal on the body" a nadge. I'll take it. this is always my favorite stuff to ride. I know of a few good segments in SATN that are this kind of fun, and I feel like most of BCGB has these qualities. what are you favorite nadge trails, spots, and segments in Austin? 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mack_turtle Posted June 17, 2020 Author Share Posted June 17, 2020 I think "gnar" usually applies to high-speed downhill terrain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me "gnar" is less about high speed downhill and more about technical, high-penalty-for-failure terrain. Think coral sharp edged rocks or exposure or drops to drops with sketchy pebbles on the landing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheX Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 For me, gnar is what we had in Bandera. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man thanks for sharing! Only 2 vids posted so far but those are really high-quality edits and I'm subscribed now looking for more to come. Both the vid and term Nadge reminded me of one of my fav You Tubers - Pat Smage. Ya know .... Smage can Nadge for sure. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If nadge is what I think it to be, then the Cedar Breaks portion of LGT is very nadgey. -CJB 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
