How to Increase Speed of Wrist Motion

Description

Hi Troy and Co. I'm trying to learn wrist motion (902/RDT), specifically the one that Troy demonstrates in the Bulletproof USX video. I'm following the instructions but can't seem to get it much faster than 150-160 bpm 16ths. When I go higher than that it gets very inconsistent (missing notes). It doesn't get tense, but I just feel like I can move my wrist fast enough even though I know wrist speed is capable of extremely high speeds (see Petrucci, Gilbert, Anton Oparin, etc.). What am I doing wrong?
