In Response To: Re: Barrel Roll (James Oliver)

I've been told that I should take a Rolling class, because doing a roll wrong can dislocate a shoulder, and an experienced pair of eyes can quickly point out any problems you're having.

I have also studied the videos as was recommended. When I watched a roll being demonstrated I could better hang on to some of the movements that would otherwise be difficult to follow. Rolls are really neat. I've coached pole vaulting and hurdling-because my friend would never be able to catch every part of those movements. Based on that experience rolling looks difficult to get a handle on but easy once learned and practiced.
