Hi everyone,
I'm a rather new skater, I got my first board about a year ago but only used it for minimal transportation around campus for a few months, learned to (kind of) stationary ollie on it, and then i put it down for a while. Now that I'm using it again, I'm encountering the same problem i did when I first bought the board. When I feel the wheels, they move back and forth on the trucks (as my local skate shop told me was normal?) however when I ride on it, after a minute or two the wheels tighten and stop moving back and forth. If I pick the board up and spin the wheels that have tightened they slow down withing 20 seconds, while the loose ones continue spinning. If i hit the outside of the wheel, they free up and move back and forth like normal. My skate shop told me that the nuts are just too tight, however I've loosened them to be flush with the outside of the axle, or even a bit beyond it. I've googled and searched for this issue and came up dry so I've turned to all of you! Thanks a lot for any help. I apologize for the length of this and also for any jargon or lingo that I may have messed up. Cheers.
