u mean drum roll? the main point about it is to let ur stick bounce freely... make sure u are holding ur stick with ur thumb and second finger most of the time
i believe the third finger is ur middle finger? that will be th supporting finger then...use ur middle finger to stroke ur stick down to the surface of drum and keep ur left and right hand going constantly alternating...that's it ^ ^
but i cant do double pedal too...haha!! juz brought my double pedal todae...will work it out some dae ^ ^

uh... ok... up to u...
What i suggest is to get a practice pad, a metronome (important), and of course, a pair of drumsticks. Start by working on your rudimentals and basics first. Basics are the foundation of everything. Always start from slow then gradually increase your speed. As for your rolling problem, try rolling slowly first. Once you're confident, then increase your speed.

it's encouraging to hear pple aspiring to drum well, but the above sentence is like saying "hi, i've only started to learn english for 9months and i don't know many english speaking friends, how long do i need before i can write chim poetry or prose? i write abc until sian liao..."
see, thing is, learn your abcs, grammar, then vocab, then exercise them with pple, obtain the exposure and experience and blahblah.
in drumming words, learn your basics ie posture, sticking, basic rudiments then sightreading, application of rudiments, drumset playing, dynamics then jargons, terms, different genres and styles then play with pple continuously.
progressive, not impulsive.
