OK, here's my problem:

I have a deck from argos which I've been keeping for a year now and i want a new 60 pound (in currency, not weight.) upgrade complete from half pipe, I've been asking my parents for weeks.

and that's the problem:

my parents are saying NO angry.gif! their reason why, (And this is probably one of the most ridiculous reasons why) the want me to improve......... on my old, crappy board that's not made by a professional who KNOWS skateboarding, but some random person from a Developing-3rd world country

I need your help

Tell them all Argos boards are is nicely painted firewood, and you would improve much quicker on a better board.

Tell them that you will save up/whatever and buy one yourself, take them to a skater owned shop and then ask at the shop why a decent skateboard is better than the argos shite you are cursed with.

Er.. what exactly is that?


And 60 squid is a lot of dosh for a parent just to chuck at a kid when it's not christmas or birthday..

I'd not chuck that at my kids for a skateboard (apart from birthday or christmas) if I wasn't a skater myself..
