Found lots of Peg Plus near me on deep discounts. Specs wise they're really close with the VN4. What's wrong with the Peg Plus for easy running?
Excellent video and the "vs Everybody is such a great format so please continue with this! The performance matrix is one of the most helpful things in the shoetube space
I hope the actual stack height stayed the same (33/22 as per runrepeat). Now that the Rise 2 and Ride 19 became higher, there's almost nothing left below 35 mm for recovery.
one day we'll need a video outlining these terms specifically which could be fun….what's the difference between rolling (which i believe you described the puma DN4) and fluid? could be fun to discuss all of the adjectives you have used on all of your shoes and decribe the feelings and maybe lay THOSE out on a matrix….best channel ever man. boing boing!
