Can you do an impact roll in a weighted vest?

I have never had a weighted vest and was wondering if it were possible to do an (proper) impact roll with one on. Yes, I know you can roll over your back with one on but if its no a good roll then its not worth practicing. I know that the weights are spread out across the entire vest and that it is a snug fit that sticks to your body so I didn't know if the weights were all small enough and conformed to your body well enough to do an impact roll. From the research I have done it looks like the Uni-Vest spreads out the weights best making for smaller weights. I understand that the weight would make any roll infective even if it does turn out to be possible, but this is not meant for my regular Parkour, just training.
