For regular trucks, quite tight but still able to turn a little bit. For wide trucks and extra wide trucks, I prefer it medium or tight. - blosom wrote:

James, your 13, you don't know of your vaginal preference yet. Tightness of the hand doesn't count. OMFG I laughed way too hard at this
Loose, but only with wide decks, thin decks feel horrible when they have loose trucks.
I think most people know that I ride my trucks insanely loose though.

| it drives me insane when both my trucks are not exactly the same tightness. i also hate skating my board backwards...
i like the pop of medium to med.tight trucks - but i like how you can roll around with more steez all snake like when riding up to a trick and turn in and out with the trucks medium to loose... i seem to keep destroying cheap china bushings tho. the colored ones that come on broken knuckle trucks. those suck.
white teflon bottom + small black top flatface bushings are amazing tho.
and the stock red bushings on y trucks are pretty sweet too. |

| I prefer Medium, I used to ride so tight, Like no wiggle at all, But that felt too stiff, So I loosened 'em up a bit, and when they were really lose, I couldn't even pop the board, It was crazy, so I found on a spot in the middle that I like, and another question, Can you feel a difference between tuned Tech Deck wides and Black River Trucks? and if so, How big is the difference? |

| I like my trucks in the middle. With my type of bushings if you ride too tight it can split the bushings in half and if you ride to loose then the trucks will just fall off. I like it a little tight but a little loose. |

But yeah I agree with you on trucks. @Blosom Haha i'm wondering now... But yeah, I used to be crazy about loose (deck hitting wheel...) , but now I like it medium. @ Alex Haha, if your looser than CRK I don't know how your hanger stays on the deck XD |

| Medium. Loose enough to have that extra control, and tight enough to have pop. |
