Hello cacue, there are some edits due to the loose way this French text was typed.
turkishmiss suggested a more understandable way to express the first sentence.
The boy in the text is speaking about a snowboard (" snow" here is to be read as an abbreviation for "snowboard" so "faire" here is not translatable by "make", but "practise"
"I want a [brand] new snowboard, and friends (female used here, with a mistake as "des" is an article for plural, so that it should be "amies ) to practise.
...so second sentence should rather read with "practise" as well.

I'll edit the French version, please could you do it for the English one?
Thanks a lot!

'I want' can also be 'I would like', which sounds a bit more friendly.
Otherwise I'm fine with it.
