You are a very good instructor, Caspar. You remind me of my teacher how excited he gets explaining and demonstrating things. It really shows you love what you are doing. Please share more.
I'm going to LLR some triplets right now in your honor. Practice pad though. It's late.
I addition to the other suggestions, I would recommend playing the double stroke roll with accents on the second stroke of each hand (lL rR), like the original NARD rudiment is written. It will help develop the finger control for the roll and produce a smoother-sounding roll too.
Here are two of my video lessons that you may find helpful:
The Endurance Method
The Rebound Game
Here's an article of mine that may help as well:
Building the Weaker Hand
Bill, thanks for posting the Endurance Method. You seem to be a great teacher, and a very warm and friendly guy (you remind me of that guy from the Daily Show, a compliment).
Please take a look at this video I just made. I spend ots of time on balance between the two hands, and love to share my ideas....
Let me know what you think.

Awesome video Casper! You always look very relaxed when you play, which I am really trying to work on. Any suggestions to help in that respect?
Thank you, and....THANK you!! Yes, I definitely have suggestions in that department. What helped me enormously was learning the free stroke, and then later the Moeller technique. These two techniques are a solid foundation for drum technique mechanics. I have found that whatever technical issues I have, they are always reflected in how I play these techniques, and can therefore be corrected from there.
So, I suggest getting a really good teacher to explain these things to you. Dom Famularo's book It's Your Move, or JoJo's video is a great starting point, but you will learn it MUCH better from an actual person.
Let me know if you have more questions.
