Sticking for that* BR Memorial Vinnie fill?

Would anyone happen to know to the sticking for the snare part at the beginning of Vinnie's fill at 7:02? I've been sloppily playing a bastard version of it for the past few years and have trouble picking out the exact sticking, especially when it's blazing along at that speed

Any help would be much appreciated!

I bought this video then because I was into Weckl, but discovered Vinnie, who I thought DESTROYED the other two in my young way of thinking. Today, I feel as though Steve is the man and his understatement and SERIOUS groove really won the day. Of course, then I realize that WE ARE ALL STILL WATCHING THIS, getting fresh inspiration with each revisit, which is really special and I don't think, can be said of much else that is put before us these days.
I was wondering if anyone was actually there that night. If so, what was the vibe of the show like? How was the sound in the audience? What were the responses to everything? What's not on the video...Basically, any stories from this night will be appreciated.

Gadd's drums just sound amazing. SO FREAKING BIG. Feels like he's hitting cannons when he hits those floor toms.
Got to spend two days with the same set up, same two ply heads, same sticks, same mounts. Never came close to sounding like this. In fact, they sounded awful. Pretty sure I lack the capacity or mentality to hit as hard as he does, but I'm positive that's how he gets that sound.
