Gnu boards are made in a dream factory in a dream location, producing dream boards with dream materials and process. When you ride one, there’s more than just the board under your feet; there’s passion, technology, art, history, community and vision. It’s not simply made, it’s Mervin Made.
Gnus are built at the world’s most environMENTAL zero hazardous waste producing factory Mervin Manufacturing by the people who ride them. Mervin was founded by snowboarders Mike Olson and Pete Saari in 1977.
