  • Answer:

    Do something they'll appreciate in exchange for the privilege of buying it online. Some ideas might be cleaning your room, taking out the garbage, or doing your homework. If they're worried about you catching some serious air and getting injured, just tell them that skateboarding is a great way to stay physically fit and spend time with friends. If that doesn't work, you could always ask for it for your birthday or other holiday celebration.

Mow the yard, clean the garage, make an effort to do something. If they see you doing this they'll know something is up and ask why your doing it... then break it to them. Earn it.

You could offer to work for it by doing extra chores around the house. That way you can better convince them it's a good idea.
