Default rollers

does it matter which direction you roll in rolling turns? I know the unlimited has circles where you have to roll in opposite directions, but does it matter if you start rolling into the circle or out of it?
I am specifically speaking about the roller in the intermediate sequence.
I ask this because I know that the direction of the roll is not important for straight line maneuvers unless it is position-critical (like the humpty in the intermediate).

Default RE: rollers

On rolling circles the direction has to be flown the direction written. So the int 90 degree would be to the inside of the circle. In Unlimited the first roll is in second roll out. I have noticed that most of the pilots flying Int this year have a lot of trouble with the roller. Luckly its very low K factor!!!
