Default Longboarding hills in Calgary

Any longboarders out there?
More generally, can any posters recommend some freshly paved hills in their area?

What makes a good hill you ask?
-smoooooooth (fresh pavement/asphalt)
-decent length (at least 500m)
-not too crazy steep...I don't want to die, just carve some nice turns.
-not a major road (sarcee, shaganappi)...cars=bad. Larger community roads are great.


My contribution:
Start at the top of 34th Ave SW by the Garrison Woods Safeway. Cruise down 34th. The best part ends at 14th St, but you can keep going down through Mount Royal to Elbow Drive. Takes about 10-15 minutes.
