Gave him a skateboard a couple of years ago. He’s still trying to do the basic moves but he loves it. Doesn’t need new wheels yet 😅
At 10 he's alllllmost at that age where anything a grown-up relative buys for him is gonna be cringe and not the right brand/style/whatever. You can't go wrong with a voucher so he can get exactly what he wants. Maybe a voucher for a skate shop? You could even take him there and help him get something so it's still an uncle/aunt purchase.
His wheels may be fine but if he's really into it aome good bearings will make a huge difference. I'm in favour of a cheap action camera however. I'm sure you could get something good enough for a kid at that price point.
Shit. Hmmm... Does he have a decent water bottle? Maybe something like a hyroflask would be good. Plus it'd be multi-use. Another possibility might be a skate bag to put his stuff in if he doesn't already have one.
Protip on this one, if you have a youth soccer club nearby, just head to the lost and found to find hundreds of pounds of premium water bottles. No one will claim them, just take them. Please. The landfills don’t need any more garbage.
That's not a bad idea, I'll have to keep that in mind myself.
