'scuse me! How "skilled" do you need to be to roll down a hill for heaven's sake?
It's just a petrol-free way of achieving flying speed - what is so hard about a soap box derby?
It isn't a demonstration of superior skill just because it is unconventional. D'uh'oh!
Really!

Otherwise, presuming that the pilot had carefully assessed the surface as suitable and free of hazards, I see this as a low risk demonstration of skill - 'cause he can't sink and drown trapped in the 'plane, going down the hillside!
