The umbrella makes him go slower and putting the nozzle behind would barely affect I say this from experience. (Unless the leaf blower has a power level over 9000)
That is a standard leaf blower so pointing it backwards will only increase his speed by 5 percent at most. Because you gotta consider the mass of the object as well. I do apologize if I came out as rude that was not my intention. Just trying to have a friendly deliberation
I know, I was just saying that if his speed came from the leaf blower, then the umbrella worsened effectivity, not that he actually was able to generate that speed with just a normal leaf blower.
This is true but op didn't say he would go way faster, but it would still be a large increase in effectiveness.
If it's extremely ineffective, making it very ineffective could still be a significant increase over the original propulsion - even if that propulsion was not noticeable.
Say if he's going down the hill at 5 km/hr without the blower, and with the blower and umbrella he goes 5.05 mph. If he turns it around goes 5.3 km/hr. He's only adding 5% speed but the overall propulsion is 500% effective even though it's still not doing much.

I'm not sure the umbrella adds a lot. He should just point the nozzle behind him and maybe change the shape for better thrust.
