FX-1 barrel rolls...whos pulling them off flatwater?

Im almost finished with my pump conversion. I'll also be adding a protec head and b pipe, and carbon reeds and tubbies. Pretty confident this setup should be capable of flatwater rolls once I get the skill level. Who's pulling them off? What's your setup? How much practice did it take? Pics? Vids? Thanks!!!

I'm on a stock motor but with every handling mod possible. Including impeller. And I'm only at 3/4 of a roll if I had a pipe and head it should be no prob but you need practice and commitment
Edit didn't see this was on fx-1 I got a rn should be easier on a fx-1

Living the dream.
I believe that my ski is capable. I (sadly) am not.


*edit*
Z-Force ported 62t/61x, ADA girdled head @ 170/170 psi, Blackjack 46's, MSD T/L, B-pipe, 144mm SJ pump w/ a hooker 9/16 and an OP steering nozzle. I am confident that the ski could easily BR off of a boat wake. I am not the rider to do it (at this time)

People roll stock 701 SJ's and modified 650 SJ's. I have trouble doing clean rolls with a 1000. It's all technique.
 
Just watch videos of other riders and try to ride with people who are more skilled than you, I Started doing Barrel Roll's by riding with Proformance1, I would get so pumped riding with those guys that I just kept trying it until i figured it out.. i bet i have over 100 failed BR attemps under my belt until i started Riding away from half of them... It's all really a mind game, practice and dont get siked out... And Don't let go upside down, The only times i ever hurt myself is letting go
