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.

Loose. Only because loose trucks make grinds look gnarly.

I find turny trucks easier to control, but it has to have good rebound too happy 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.
