I heard pegs are in the works, also the Venom forks are "scalloped" now to be easier to foot jam on. New deck is very legit.

I heard the new ZG deck was the worst feeling things ever from people who I trust.

Which deck are they talking about (Spider or Trounce)? If Trounce I've heard they are making a longer version (peeps have been requesting it). Personally Dean is really liking the Trounce. The new Venom forks can hold 125mm wheels as well.

The Trounce is what I was talking about. People who rode it just said it was really bad so I wouldn't recommend anyone get one. The dropouts are cut so fucking badly like worse than any deck I've ever seen too. It also has an awful name. I've never ridden it though, so don't listen to me

Pretty strong opinion from one who has admittedly never rode one.

I have ridden one and I hated the feeling of it, they had the right idea witht the headtube adding more footspace but it does not add much on a 19 inch deck. The dropouts are so bad they should not even be there they do not help for feebles, fakie feebs, or hurricane. The only thing they help with is making the deck look ridiculous. The concave was way to steep on the prototype I rode, and on a 4.25 x 19.5 deck with that much concave I felt like I was suffocating my feet just cruising on it.

Can't address anything about the prototype ones, as Dean is riding a production one, and is not having any issues with grinds. Also noticed that the dimensions you posted differ from the production model (production model is 4.4 X 20. As previously posted if length is the issue, they are currently addressing that.
