Skateboarding: Loose trucks problem :/ ?
Hey :), I have angel-boy trucks they are really loose, i know it's good for zig-zagging style, but when doing tricks and bending down my skateboard turns and some times i bail because of this, Is there any way that would make my trucks/bushings tighter or something, and i can't buy new pair of trucks, because in my country there is no skate shop, i live in Yemen, I really appreciate your answers :)

Tighten the truck and adjust your rubber piece. That's much it.

Keep skating loose trucks! When you land tricks slightly off balance with loose trucks the board tends to turn sharply under your feet which actually allows you to maintain your balance and roll away. Plus skating loose trucks improves style and will improve your skateboarding overall. Your trucks can be too loose though. Hold onto your board and shake it.. if the trucks wobble freely, then they are probably too loose. To tighten em, just turn the truck bolt with a 9/16 wrench, pliers or simply use your teeth. Angle Boy trucks suck ass.. Get some real trucks. Indy, Venture, Thunder, Ace or Krux.
