English term or phrase: bomb little hills
“Every weekend you see groups of kids from all over – the northern beaches, the western suburbs, the south – and they migrate to the city because that’s where everyone’s skating a bunch.
And you can skate from spot to spot and bomb little hills… that’s the best thing about skating in Sydney: it’s easy to get around, it’s convenient.”
While skating in Sydney is so perfect and paradisiacal it’s almost annoying, there is one major drawback: the Pacific Ocean.

Prendre de petites descentes
Explanation:
Je pense que cette façon simple de le dire est la meilleure dans ce contexte. "To bomb a hill" veut dire tout simplement ça, faire du skate en pente, dévaler une pente, comme à San Francisco sur la vidéo.
