its not exactly the skate board. Its how you use your momentum. Even if you do not use momentum gravity will pull u faster down a steep ramp.

How do you run up a hill in cross country?

You run on your toes with your weight forward, go up the hill as fast as you can make yourself go, because hills hurt the same whether you are sprinting or jogging up them, and the faster you go the less time you're on the hill. When going down a hill take long strides and let gravity take you, you can get a good lead on those around you by using hills. It also depends on how steep the hill is, if its not that steep then i wouldn't sprint but if it is steep then sprint it because it doesn't hurt any more then if you jog it. So don't just go out and sprint every little hill you'll get way to tired.
