Yes, you should and i always do. What i try to do is estimate the proper gear due to speed, grade, etc... I usually find that 5th seems to work on most hills, but i use s-4 sometimes as well. It really depends on how steep the hill actually is really.

This is what makes the sequential mode so sweet.
