a homozygous spider is indistinguishable from a heterozygous spider therefore there is no "super spider". Like Tosha said the super reference is to phenotype. Youre friend has a homozygous spider or he got lucky, there is no way to conclusively looking at his snake say that yes it is a homozygous spider, therefore no super. I've known people who bred pastel to normal and gotten all pastels doesn't mean they have a super pastel, it is still only carrying one gene for it, just luck. If he does it consistently with his spider then you could guess that it is a homo spider but still no way of knowing for certain.
