My only tip (the other advice is sound) is learn to let rolling backwards feel natural - you'll end up rolling backward/forwards at first over a larger distance, but the better you get at it, the smaller that distance will be until you'll be doing over no distance at all. Does that make sense? I'm drinking my father's port.
Also, the advice about riding into position is really important.
ooh, ooh, one more thing: it's good to practice rolling up to a certain point and holding the TS - this will be useful for when you apply it to traffic lights.
