| Actually I ride my front trucks loose and the back ones tight. It give the deck an incredible feel you get the best of both worlds... loose and tight. |

| I find turny trucks easier to control, but it has to have good rebound too TKY bushings are great for that. |

| I ride really fucking loose, but because I have no locknuts on my trucks and I have shit baseplates I have to ride medium/tight, I should probably sort it out but I forget. |
