I see a tree whose branches are all twisted and curled and I say that it's limbs are gnarled around one another. It is a very "gnarley" tree.
Yet, someone could something very "cool" and unusual or unexpected and in slang terms that can also be very "gnarley."
Wow....that 360 turn you did on your skateboard was totally gnarly dude!
Indeed. Our English language is often hard to explain. :)

I would have to say it depends on who is using the term, however for the most part I have to agree Gnarly is meant to be used as a substitute for saying something is cool, but I have heard it used in the opposite manner

Gnarly. Largely passe, it means that something is very cool and hip
