Name your trick appropriately
It’s not really a slide if your wheels are turning. This is called the “Coco slide” but since it’s more akin to typical stunt driving found on late 70’s TV cop shows, I’d say this should be renamed the Starsky & Hutch. Who is Coco? The guy in the video is named Jim.
– Thanks to Tito for the tip.
How to Coco Slide.
Update: According to Jer – “Thats not Jim, thats Sean “Hardhat” Burke, the video was probably shot by a guy named Jim Mathers (it was.) Delicious is a great shop, run by outlook skates pro Tommy Harward.”
Geez, man, do my job for me. It even says his name at the beginning of the video. I have a really short attention span sometimes. These web host hassles really have me frazzled.
He forgot the part about replacing your bushings with a stack of washers

Like Kilwag said, what exactly is sliding here? The wheels are turning so there is no slide.
Still, it’s an nteresting trick. Not as cool as the primo slide though.
Hey guys, thanks for posting my video. Jim Mather did film/edit the video at Delicious Skate Shop. Sorry to say I didn’t name the trick. It’s been around for a while now and is also called a coconut wheelie which has a little more logic behind it.
