I’ve also been enjoying the ps mellow boards lately, and will say that the jeron Wilson 8.25“power og” deck is On that mellow ps concave. It’s supposed to be a gO52 but the tail is 6.5 because it’s not girl wood. I love that concave and find that I like the flexibility of the ps nanotubes before they die
I sometimes wonder whether crail regrets getting themselves tied up in a Chinese woodshop the way they did. The Mexican woodshops have done a really good job of minimizing or eliminating the competitive advantage China has. They sure seem to jump at any excuse to go back to riding the professors wood.
Not sure about the Jeron one because Im a skinny white guy and theres no way I could rock that graphic and not look like a chode, but I had some of the other boards from that mini PS run. I think the bannerot was one of the ones where the tail is steeper than the nose, is that Jeron deck like that?
I have one of the jovantae/Carroll 7.5 reissue on the 90s mold and it's crazy mellow and flat enough to eat off. I like some of the stuff that comes out of the slightly spoony PS molds too, the scumco Evan Smith guest boards were amazing and the WKND CT shape is a good one if you like short decks and wbs. They can get pretty mellow if you get a bottom stacker.
For the Toy Machine stuff - they use like 4 woodshops and each woodshop has it's own set of molds so it's best to look at them in person or hit up a friendly shop owner and ask if it's a PS (make sure it has the sn, some of the bbs and Chinese boards are laser engraved too) and for detailed pics before buying. Skate warehouse puts up good pics including profile shots so keep an eye on that if you're in the states, they usually have a decent selection of Toy stuff. Tumyeto usually lists the concave on their site but the way I typically identify the really flat stock shape is the oddball dimensions - 8.25" x 31.5" 14.5" wb. Keep an eye out for that and go in for a closer look if you see it.
