Gnu Super Progressive Air Machine 2019 - 2018 Review by The Good Ride
The Gnu Super Progressive Air Machine or SPAM is a bit of a collab with Airblaster and it’s got a set back tapered surfy almost traditional camber feel to it. It felt a little like it takes the Mullair and makes is a little surfier. The 2019 is a little different than the 2018 model but it’s still a fun ride. The 2019 Gnu SPAM model looks surfier with the new tip/tail design but it’s got the same specs between the feet. Despite that, we kind of liked the 2019 model a little better.
