What is WRONG with my Skateboard?

Improving My Skateboard Setup: REAL Wood Riser Pads Vs Plastic Risers

I was trying to solve the wrong problem during my skate session. It wasn't a technique issue, it was a setup issue.

Can changing out my plastic riser pads for REAL Skateboard's Wood Ply Riser Pads make that big of difference?
