Speed Control
Hills can be scary and were something of a barrier for me when I started skating. I'd opt for hills that had something at the bottom - a wall or a lamp post! Not a great idea!
Learning to control your speed on hills will allow you to venture further in your skating and make you a more confident skater.

How to control your speed on the downhill: -
Use sweeping slaloms - parallel turns to keep your speed low.
Turn on the hill as if you are pulling a u-turn and heading back up the hill.
Stay low and keep your base wide.
Use your edges and think about sharpening your skate wheels.
Try to avoid abrupt movements that could cause you to slide.
Snake from side to side using as much of the road as possible, the wider the better.
Practice on shallow gradients that have a grass run off so you can bail out if you need to.
Wider paths are better to learn on.
Wear protection.
