Yo, gnarly crew, GM! Welcome to another edition of Gnarly News a time to kick back, get hyped, and catch up on some epic nounish updates and milestones. Keep it Gnarly \m/
Amid a turbulent landscape of political and socio-economic shifts, GnarsDAO charges into another year. Adding to the chaos, the crypto market keeps throwing curveballs, but the shredders, the winds, the waves, the spots, the tricks, the slams, and the stoke never stop.
When it comes to expansion, movement and friction at certain points make a difference. Nogglesrails are an example of this, spread across different parts of the planet, spreading culture in a certain geometric pattern.
Raised on the streets of São Paulo, Pamtech had his first contact with skateboarding in 1990, and his passion was instant. The asphalt became his blank canvas, where each trick expressed his creativity. What started as fun soon evolved into a lifestyle and, later, a profession, teaching him not only tricks and balance but also discipline, resilience, and the value of a united community.
The same mindset of overcoming challenges and exploring new possibilities in skateboarding was also reflected in another passion: technology. With this spirit, he decided to expand his horizons and earned a degree in computer network engineering, gaining technical knowledge that broadened his perspective and enhanced his ability to innovate.
Pamtech entered the world of Web3 out of curiosity and quickly had the pleasure of discovering SKATEHIVE. It was there that he met Gnars, through other shredders who are part of the community, and immediately connected with the global Web3 universe.
As he began posting his videos and photos on the platform, Pamtech accumulated Hive and, as a gift to himself, acquired his first Gnars NFTs. In doing so, he joined other extreme sports enthusiasts, expanding his network in both the technology ecosystem and skateboarding.
r4to, a programmer already familiar with crypto, dove into Web3 after discovering Nouns.wtf. His curiosity was sparked when he saw a Gnars PFP, leading him to explore the ecosystem and understand Ethereum’s purpose.
His turning point came alongside Vlad when they approved a proposal to create the new Gnars website. The project provided financial stability and allowed him to leave his traditional job to fully dedicate himself to Web3.
Today, he works on the Gnars and Nounspace projects. Over time, he stopped simply converting Ethereum to fiat and began reinvesting in the ecosystem, strengthening the circular economy and collective growth.
Approved for a scholarship at Flows, he quickly gathered an amount and, without hesitation, bought some Gnars NFTs. This move not only reflects his commitment to the ecosystem but also marks a significant step in the extensive development.
Gnarly news from the world of games and pixel art! The demo for Nounish Punk Demo, a skateboarding game born from a Nouns proposal, just dropped. Plus, Shredder Zeke is bringing the heat with a wild Pixel art collection "Kickflip Collective" featuring builders, crazy art, and pure gnarly energy.
From shirts and jackets to skateboard decks, surfboards, hot sauce, NogglesRails, and beyond. Gnars products capture the essence of the Nouns/Noggles ecosystem and the gnarly journey of our projects and athletes. The next step? Launching the Gnars Shop on the new gnars.com, bringing our onchain products together and making them available for purchase. In the future, it’ll also be linked to the Nouns Shop, expanding the reach of Nounish merch even further!

In 2025, Gnars continues to propagate the Noggles across the world, adapting to the evolving Nounish culture while shaping its own Gnarly subculture. After navigating different phases within the DAO, Gnars keeps the momentum alive fueling creativity, supporting shredders, and pushing boundaries at the same pace that this unique movement keeps emerging and redefining itself.
ETHDenver 2025 was a major Web3 innovation festival, bringing together developers, creators, and blockchain enthusiasts. The event featured a gnarly activation, with BLUNTSDAO's proposal in action and an iconic presentation from the GTA IMF team. Additionally, partners gathered to build and push culture forward within the ecosystem.
Here are some shots of Tom rocking ETH Denver, representing NounSpace, a community-driven project and close ally of GnarsDAO. As the founder of NounSpace, Tom continues to push the boundaries of Nounish culture, fostering creativity and collaboration within the ecosystem. Captured in the heart of one of the biggest Ethereum and Web3 conferences, these moments highlight the growing impact of Nounish builders in the space.
GNARS x BluntDAO x DeSCIWorld: Initial Results
We took on Loveland Pass, Keystone, and Breckenridge, using Cudis Rings to track biometrics before and after smoking, and the results were!
Our crew of shredders + seshers put Proof of Sesh & Proof of Shred to the test:
Sam Dunkleberg (DFW → Denver) – lifelong shredder, first intro to Web3 & GNARS! 
Chase Blakely (DFW → Denver) – Web3 native, new to DeSci, hyped to help!
Vanes (Phoenix) – a multi-sport ripper (snowboard, skate, surf) joining the sesh! 
Hanz aka Hazeman (Sweden) – firm believer in "No shame in shredding or hating skiers" 
These brave testers tracked their biometrics in real-time, and while we’re still analyzing the data, here’s what we saw so far:
2/3 of shredders hit their fastest speeds of the weekend after smoking 
Higher vitality scores compared to their baseline
4% improvement in sleep quality on average
This biohacking experiment was just the beginning! We’re expanding this research to surfers, skaters, and other athletes to better understand how cannabis impacts performance, recovery, and overall health. Our mission is clear: give athletes the tools to be more informed about their health, optimize their seshes, and push their limits.
As part of an executed Gnars proposal, shredders took on the monstrous waves of Praia do Norte, Nazaré, pushing the limits in extreme conditions. Beyond the heavy drops and adrenaline, fueled rides, they also carried out a remarkable rescue operation, showcasing skill, bravery, and the true spirit of the Gnars community.
