No, the front wheels of a skateboard should be as tight as the back ones.

Are punked skateboard decks good?

I have a Punked pintail with tsunami print. To answer the question : Yes. They're not cheapo like Walmart board decks and are ''good'' longboard decks made the same way and some materials of a name brand board and about that quality for a 9 ply maple deck. It isn't very flexy, - just has a bit of flex, unlike a Loaded Longboard deck, but that's 'cause they're made of bamboo, plus they're like 200 bucks for the deck alone for a Loaded deck. Don't get the wrong idea about 'em 'cause they're not a name brand deck. They are nice with some super good designs on the bottoms and don't come off that easily. MUCH better than a crappy Walmart board deck with no flex like a plank and that break easily. Good for longboard decks. I only have a Punked longboard deck so I don't know what their skateboard decks are like. Hope this helps and happy boarding!
