How we'll does it do on hills

We have a paved hill on our way to the park and it gets up it no problem!!! We have had ours for 6 months and my 7 yr old daughter LOVES it!!!! Great investment!

This could have been one of the top gifts I've ever given my children. I'm getting a 4th one for my 4th child because everyone in our neighborhood uses and fights over. We live in a relatively hill area and it has never lost speed. Not sure what incline you are referring to but always works well

That depends, if it's loose gravel, not so well. If it's more compact then it should be great. Hills would be doable if the child is older and can use the brake on the downhill. They really are so fun. I purchased one for my son and then my three daughters after they saw how fun it was then two neighbor boys went out and bought one after trying theirs out.

Depends on how long the hill is. If the hill is long and pretty steep than the board will just keep increasing at high speeds. But if it's a short and not so steep hill it will go at a medium speed. Hope this helps.

It is low to the ground, to prevent top heaviness & easy tip over, but it goes over speed bumps easily. It can climb serious outside incline without losing power. We live near a park with steep grade & it took me up that hill there & back without any power loss. I was prepared for some lag as it reached the top of the hill, but there was none.

Very intriguing idea. It would not be too dangerous if you dragged it up hill. You would not be in the path of gravity. If you stand below it, most people would say it is dangerous. I would be willing to do it by being vigilant and nimble.

It handles slightly uneven terrain well. My yard has some big holes and a few slopes that it can take care of with little problem. I might have to go over a spot or two a second time hre and there, but over all no problems.

This would not work well on gravel or large hills. You could not go up the hills on it and it would be dangerous going down a large hill because there is not much of a brake on it.

Yes I believe it would :) don't quote me cuz we don't love around a lot of hills, but I think it has enough power if it is charged...and I know there is a way you make it faster, because my nieces have one and are older (my daughter is just 3) and my brother in law took off something to make it go faster! Hope that helps!

No, you don't have to be going down hill for it to go. It works by a simple right - left motion of the feet. It doesn't work up hill if the hill is too steep. My son rides it in about 4 different parks near our house. We don't use it in parks with steep hills because even though it's quite light I don't want to have to carry it up the hill. it works best on even and semi even smooth terrains. My son loves it.

i do not think it will travel up hills with that weight. when our older daughter who weighs about 140 pounds rides the scooter it goes ok on flat ground but slows down going up incline.

Great on gravel and hills. The speed adjustment allows compensation in difficult terrain.

I live in a hilly area. I haven't found a hill I can't climb with peddle work in the right gear. You do have to peddle on hills. I never have to stand up in my seat, though. It's more like trying to peddle about the same as you would if there were no motor on flat ground. I have never had to jump off and push the bike up a hill, however, without peddling and gear changes, the bike will stop going up a steep hill. If you buy the newer model with the bigger motor, it might make a difference.

Fairly well,depending on the terrain. It doesn't climb hills and doesn't have brakes. Buy an extra battery and carry it along, when the first battery runs out then switch so you can avoid pushing it back home.

it might go slower up hill, but depending on your weight, I doubt it would need to be pushed.

It does alright on dry grass on level ground. Going uphill is tougher, but my 5 year old can do it. Wet grass causes more slipping. It's really best on dirt or concrete.

It does. Going downhill and on flat is pretty great. The trucks aren't amazing - but if you're looking for a faster pace, just invest in better trucks.

We have a very steep hill in our side yard and this is light enough to push up and down the hill. If you try to take it sideways, it could roll on you. I'm guessing a heavy one would probably run the same risk, though. We're more than a year into it and still pleased.
