obviously, the grade of the downhill is going to have to be moderate enough so that you can still slow yourself by backpedaling to keep control, especially since you said no skidding/skipping. i usually just float the pedals down hills, or backpedal. i can easily spin out on flat ground, no need to try to spin out going downhill.
