What it means
A shout of pure commitment, telling yourself or a mate to go for it with everything and worry about the landing later. It started on the slopes and the dirt track but now it covers anything you throw yourself into headfirst, from a big jump to hitting reply all by accident and just owning it.
Usage examples
"Coach said stop overthinking the penalty and just send it, so I closed my eyes and smashed it top corner."
"You have been staring at that text for an hour, just send it and see what she says."
"He stood at the top of the run for half a second, then someone yelled send it and off he went."
Where it comes from
Comes straight off the mountain and the motocross track, where sending it meant launching into a jump fully committed instead of bailing at the lip. The phrase rolled downhill into everyday talk, so now you can send it on a spreadsheet or a road trip just the same.
