Your letting go with your front hand and its pulling you to revert. Try letting go with your back hand after you initiate the roll, this way you wont turn to revert.

or, keep both hands on the handle and keep it on your lead hip.

HELP please!!!....still the same result...at the last second the tension in the line is pulling me to revert...if I try letting go with my back hand the handle gets pulled from me...any other ideas...see the link above for video...could this be an issue with technique...any advanced riders in the Phoenix area need a pull that would be willing to help out at Lake Saguaro some Saturday...thx
