Okay my deck has a mind of its own and turns sharply if im not leaning hard on it. If I skate mongo (hate doing it) I can control it but when Im pumping in regular it turns.
I wanna get my trucks so they dont turn they just go straight...What do I do?

Are your trucks new? Do a few sharp turns to soften up the bushings. Your kinpin could be crooked. Try getting new bushings and kinpin, or new trucks altogether.

No you don't need to get new trucks. Loosen your trucks all the way, wobble them left and right about a dozen times, then tighten it back up.

are you a small person? because if you dont have enough weight to push down on the side, or just maybe dont know how to control the board side to side, then maybe your board might go straight.
just stand on it while stopped and wobble left and right a few times.

Get some new bushings. =\ If you're pushing and it's turning it's probably your bushings, they've got softer to one side, and when you push it's going to that side. Yeah bro. =)
