To the left, it looks like it's starting a barrel roll, then  it  
breaks into the snap; however, it's hard to stop reliably.
To  the right, it is much more ready to snap, but it just doesn't look   
"right".
There's a "ton" of elevator; so much so that the airplane is  "touchy  
in pitch.

That fat wing just doesn't seems to like to snap.

Yep.

The  only entry speeds he's tried are what you'd expect for the  
Reverse  Avalanche and the 45 Down Snap.

Read the instructions that come with the Impact I had the same problem  
increase the aileron throw and reduce the elevator throw and go into the snap  with 
a little more speed and the snaps will be more consistant.also increasing  
throttle just before the snap seems to help.
dont ask me why, all I know is that it works.
