The parents of Australia’s youngest Olympic champion made their daughter a surprising promise if she secured a gold medal in Paris.

Arisa Trew, 14, landed a score of 93.18 in the women’s skateboard park overnight, wiping out her competitors and making it to the top of the podium.

But a gold medal isn’t the only thing the young skateboarder won after a near perfect run on the half-pipe, her parents promised her a pet duck.

“My parents promised me if I won the gold medal I could get a pet duck,” she told the Today Show on Wednesday morning.

The skateboarding champion explained she will take her new pet on “walks and to the skate park” once she returns to Australia.

Ms Trew said a pet duck would suit her busy lifestyle as she competes overseas.

“My parents wouldn’t let me get a dog or a cat because we are travelling so much right now,” she said.

“I feel like a duck might be a little bit easier.”

The young skateboarder said she will keep her new pet duck in little pool in her backyard.

Ms Trew is Australia’s first medallist in women’s skateboarding and for the first time, Japan didn’t win a gold medal in a women’s skateboarding event after Ms Trew pulled out all the stops.

Legendary skateboarder Tony Hawke was left impressed by the young Aussie’s performance.

“She absolutely deserved it, I think that she’s leading the way of what’s possible in skateboarding and women’s skateboarding,” he said following her win.
