One problem I've continually struggled with are my rolls. Once I switched over to 1st and 2nd bass drum I really started developing a lot of bad habits for my rolls. Mainly I think it has to do with my left hand but check out this video to see what I'm doing wrong so you can offer some useful advice to correct the situation.

help me
it sounds like your left hand is dragging a little bit.
just think 1e+a 2e+a ...
try doing 16th notes slowly but with the double sticking (RR LL)
hope this helps

I'll give that a shot... Sometimes the simple things are what counts..

Help in Double Strokes
Play a repetitive drum pattern (ex. basic rock beat) and focus on the double taps of the left hand. To do this, play 2 notes (2e) and on the 4, instead play (4e). Now play the pattern. Instead of playing one stroke for the 2 and 4, play an eight note followed by a sixteeth note next to it. It should sound like this.
1 2e 3 4e. and repeat that. Or just do: 1e 2e 3e 4e, from a repetitve drum pattern.
If that doesn't work. Try the Push-Pull technique slowly and then gradually increase the tempo and add in the right hand playing doubles with it. If that doesn't work. I don't know what else to do.
