My outriggers are slightly short and do not both touch the same time.  The
trick is to ignore any rocking from side to side and just keep it straight
with the rudder.  To date I do not even find myself consiously trying to
correct for rocking with the ailerons at least on the ground anyway.  If
you are straight and have the ground speed the plane just jumps off of the 
ground with just a tiny release of back pressure.  If I have a cross wind
present I give in a  little  pre load and keep the upwind wing down. 
Aileron  fine tuning really comes in as soon as you leave the  ground where
your're not bumping outriggers.
