To do it I paddle along, doublepump to about 45degrees onto the nose then throw my weight round and under the boat but I can get all the way round. If anyone knows how to do this then could you give me some tips??? Cheers.

Yu R probably talking about a Dry Roll. Basicaly U don't have to double pump, though it might make it easier or more dinamic. To make it all the way with your head above the water U should go for a back deck roll while bracing/pushing on your paddle harder then usual. At least that's the way it works for me. Keep your arms and shoulders in the power box position - this drill has the potential to put a lot of stress on the active shoulder.
Enjoy!!!
