at this point it is unrealistic that you are going to get a job and then make 2000 dollars in time to sign up but you might be able to pay for some

tell them it's either that or you could be spending your time doing drugs and turning to a life of crime. vs. outdoor excersize and social skills improvement

yeah just say its better than doing drugs, and if they dont let you start doing drugs and say its because you cant go to ski camp. or if they dont let you go just say you are giving up skiing because you cant do what everyone else does, and if they care about your hobbies then they should pay for it. it works for me all the time i need anything.
and fuck paying for it yourself, thats stupid, i wouldnt spend all year working my ass off for a week of skiing when your parents can get the money in like a week of pussy work.

the problem with a job is that i don't have one right now, and i'm way too busy to have one.
i'm gonna offer to pay for a lot too.
Hell, my parents are probably looking for any reason to get me out of the house.
i like the drugs/social skills idea, and i haven't ruled out whoring.
the camp i'm looking into going to is empire freeride, me and my friend wanna go cause it looks like a shitload of fun

if they are supportive, tell them that it will help you progress and become a better skier. if not, get a job and tell them you will pay for some of it

yea, fuck it, they just told me i can't go regardless of how much i pay.
thats what happens when you suck at skiing at your parents dont support it at all. (i even tried the idea of saying i'd hang out here and do drugs)

sounds like youre pretty shafted
but the real summer experience is this: buy a hood summer pass. chill in a tent all summer. hitch hike to the mountain. get some cheap food an stuff at govy. its the way to be and you could ski like 50 days

well my first year my parents didnt want me to go cause my mom was afraid i was gonna get hurt in canada and i live on the east coast so many problems. Its also very expensive. So i convinced my dad to sign me up without my mom knowing. We sorta didnt tell her until the week before i left which was finals so i had a reason for her to not bug me. But she was pretty pissed. O and my parents are divorced either. The second year i had to pay for half the trip which i managed to do.

offer to try harder in school and if you get a good gpa then they can pay for some, then get a summer job and pay them back for the rest.

for the amount u pay to go to camp, why dont u buy a season pass and just stalk to pro's and just mimic them.... maybe make friends with them, and maybe they'll actually teach u a thing or 2...... and you'll still have money left over.....

well i wouldnt spend like all year working just to ski for a week, yeah ski camp is fun, but not that fun. and whats wrong with your parents paying for it? are you saying you would rather pay for it yourself? if you ski you most likely arent poor because skiing costs quite a bit of money. so its not like your parents arent able to afford it. and its true most of our parents can probably make that money in like a week, rather than us making it over like a whole year.

If you already have the money, like you said, and they wont let you go, convince them to let you go next year or something, talk about it, like the guy above me, research it. Give them the old "If I learn the right way, I won't get hurt when I normally ski alone" Thats the only reason my mom is letting me go to water ramps this summer, so I can "learn" how to do stuff on a softer (water) surface.

U guys are a bunch of stuck up bitches. It isnt u parents job to pay for anything accept for the clothes on ur back, food, and a house over ur head. Get a fucking job or sell some drugs but the more u make it seem like its there job to pay for shit like that the moer they will not want to

if you have the money, why not just sign up and go? deal with the parents when you get back. ski camp will be worth it. you might not even get in trouble because theyll be so impressed that you took responsibility and did it all yourself
