Sendy
Extreme-sports slang meaning bold, daring, and fully committed to an action without regard for safety — from skiing and snowboarding's 'send it.'
Definition
Sendy describes something bold, daring, or reckless in a fun way — a line down a mountain, a trick, or just a life decision made with full, joyful commitment and no hesitation. It's an adjective built from the older phrase 'send it,' meaning to commit fully to a risky action.
History
'Send it' is thought to originate in climbing slang, where 'send' meant successfully completing a route, possibly a contraction of 'ascend it.' The phrase migrated into skiing, snowboarding, and mountain biking, where 'send it' or 'full send' means committing 100% to a jump or trick. 'Sendy' emerged as the adjective form and spread into mainstream teen slang through TikTok in the mid-2020s.
