While the term 'gnar' may get used a lot by freeskiiers, it isn't a term exclusive to skiing.
Urban Dictionary gives it two meanings:
1. A shortened version of the word gnarly, meaning high on the scale of dangerousness and coolness. Often used among the skateboard crowd
"That switch heelflip was gnar"
2. Snow.The white stuff. You like it.
"Lets shread the gnar"
These are both very applicable to skiing, but it's a term also used in other 'extreme' sports.

Crosscountry skiing, otherwise called Nordic skiing or XC skiing, is a colder time of year sport that includes skiing across significant distances over fluctuated landscape. Nordic skiing is the name given to it because it was first practiced in Scandinavia and other Nordic countries during the winter as a means of transportation.

It is a popular winter exercise and endurance sport that is enjoyed by both recreational and competitive skiers.
