Whats the difference between the two when using in an electric skatebaord?
 
"Discharge and charge rates are often different for li-ion cells. A separate port implements current monitoring just for charging and another one for discharging.

When current exceeds a threshold it will activate the safety disconnect."

I'm going with a common port BMS on my ebike just because I'm using a hobby rc charger and it can monitor the charge cycle and alert me to any issues. So I wont need a separate port.

Heres another good thread on the topic.
