Since Ive offered him pretty much everything (under reasonable prices) like all kinds of games, ball games, skate etc, he also has a bike so I’m totally out of ideas
last gift was a cheap xiaomi sports bracelet which he loved, but now I don’t know how to up it…
A pair of socks? He only shows much love for me near the seasons 😂 so I told him santa was watching (of course he doesn’t believe in santa anymore). I might prank him but I need a backup gift, so… title
Tickets/Voucher for a rock climbing centre could be up his alley.
If you want something that will last you could get him a powder bag, or his first Carabiner as well.
Be prepared that the climbing place might not let him use the Carabiner in conjunction with their equipment though, so it might sit around until he got his own harness if he ever went that far. Powder bag would be all good.
Get him an experience. Take him to an X-games style event, or indoor surfing, or Jr paintball, etc. There may be some tracks that will rent karts that young, but spectating is fun, too.
A GoPro and brackets to mount it to stuff so he can film himself
Great idea but over budget. Don’t want to open a precedent 😅
Any thought on giving just an action camera which is not specifically gopro? I think you’ll find plenty in 30€
Yup, second this. GoPro is the Gucci brand, but you can get stuff that does 90 to 100% of what they do for considerably less. You’ll need to do a bit of research in sports communities to find out which ones are good, they will have opinions. Also FPV quad hobbyists will know a lot about them, especially which ones are light and tough.
You could split the cost with other family members to make it a little more reasonable
I just want to say you are the greatest. In reddit this question would be ignored, but here I have my hands full just keeping up with replying. I have to sleep now as I have to wake early tomorrow but wow, you’re the best 😘
Mother. Fuckin. Rollerblades.
He’s into skate now, but yeah, that crossed my mind, except to give him something decent would go over budget. Trying to keep it 30€ tops But thanks 🙏
naaw rollerblades are too easy. get him some quads. chicks dig the quads
Well he’s still in the phase that girls are gross, but soon when the hormones kick in that may be a great idea. Saving it for next xmas or two
A polypropylene practice sword, though a good one might run you 40 EUR, depending on size and type.
Best experience I had so far is with Cold Steel ones.
At-home laser tag game? When we were kids my brother had one - 2 battery powered chest plates you wore and 2 guns. We’d turn the lights off in the basement and play.
Do you have any rock climbing gyms near you? Could get a punch card to one.
Unicycle
Get him a helmet and vest so he can get into rodeo sports.
Rocket Power season 1 DVDs
The Snack! bike bags are really fun
There are lots of options for cool lights for a bike, like colored LEDs.
A good bike tool like the Topeak Ratchet Rocket.
Freeline skates
Hmm, sounds like an experience gift would go over well! I’m in the US but some cool stuff you could try giving him gift cards or tickets to?
- Waverider, which is sort of like surfing but you don’t have to go to the beach
- Renting an ATV for few hours to drive out on a trail
- One of those BMX tracks for bikes instead of motorcycles
- Indoor skydiving Sorry if none of these are under budget, I haven’t done any of these in forever so couldn’t tell you what the price is.
Potatoe Cannon (less than 30$, can assist him in print out together so he knows how to fix it!) or pogo stick? (Both equally unsafe imo)
