Longboard Skateboard question?

Ok I got my very first longboard skateboard 2 days ago, I'm getting better already. But one time I was swerving around to get some speed and I turned too sharply and the deck hit the wheel braking it really hard, I flew forward and sprained my wrist. If I want to make a sharp turn and the deck skids the wheel do I tighten the truck a little so it can't touch it?
