I think there may actually be a double black diamond that exceeds the gnar limit. :blah:

Double Plus Good Black Diamond is totally insane. They only do it in Russia. My friend saw people doing it on his last trip.

They also have hoverboards.

I was thinking more along the lines of various "accepted" forms of riding (Mountaincross, 4X, DJ, DH, FR Agressive XC, XC, All Mountain, "Trail Bike"....etc) ones used in the marketing of bikes. Although "Double Black Diamond Urban Gnar Jibber" may get used in the future, one never knows for sure.

I cant believe no-body has mentioned Gnar-core urban downhill freeride tricycle super hucking. Its the next big thing, im telling you.
Here is one of the less gnar-core riders practicing his hucking skills:

What about like BMX flatland stuff, or how about trials riding. Those are 2 that are pretty well established I didn't see anybody mention. One I would like to see created is something along the lines of Unicycle urban assault, I think that would be pretty funny.

Forgive me if I've repeated some, my reading skillz can be bad.

Aggro (we think aggressive biking) = pulling a plow in kansas with a bike
Trials (did anyone mention this?)
-Street Trials (Like urban, but never call it Jibing)
-UCI Trials (Trials with rules)
-Natty (Riding Trials on Natural terrain)
-Stock Trials
-Mod (the BMX looking trials bikes)
Oh-sh!t-the-cops-are-coming-haul-ass-urban
trick riding (hear it all the time, can figure out what category it would fit into)
Big-hit-trials (trials with a long travel bike)

...and please remember...
Townie
beach-cruiser
Beer-run-biking
Keg-run-biking
...which translates to...
Drunken biking (best seen with training wheels)
