skateboard deck question?

My skateboard has a twisted/warped deck. If you look at it from front to back, you can see it's twisted like 1/2". Only 3 wheels ever touch if you put it on a flat surface.

I don't think it is possible to untwist laminated wood. Should I just shim the trucks so at least they are level to one another?

    Depends, do you desire it for variety to cruise round? i say get a one with a satisfactory layout Mystery is a well option, if you happen to desire to make use of it for skating, get a Plan B,Element,or a Baker. My opinion im a Plan B man the entire manner. and if you happen to get one for skating opt for efficiency earlier than layout the layout is gonna get F'd up anyhow, For Trucks get a few thunders, and barrings get Bone swiss.
