Uphill- longer runs are in the 3.5 mile range. Shorter hills are in the 1mile + range. @Arzamenable has a good uphill setup using conventional vesc and comunity sourced equipment.
My stuff runs decent as well. Grip power and stability will get you up the hill on the quick.

@mccloed @JaysTCB and myself made some Up hill test hits on the fastest course in the DH California Outlaw Series. 1mile 9% grade hill with gentle curves. The DH freeride and racing was excellent as well as the vibe.
The balancing job on the 155mm pnumatics paid off and made for a smooth ride over 45mph.
