DD (14U) recently switched from peel drop to roll over drop. She just couldn't get the release on the peel drop. Her PC teaches weight over front foot at release and so does one of her current coaches who pitches for a local DII school. She went to a pitching clinic within the organization last week and the coach there teaches weight over the back foot. DD said having the weight back was easier to throw but her PC doesn't think that is the most effective way to throw the roll over drop. Her team coach throws it effectively and can make adjustments to batter's positions in the box and she contributes that to the weight forward release.
I am interested in hearing what others experiences are with the pitch in relation to either weight over front foot or weight back. If you have a video to "prove" your point, even better.
