To do a Squid Roll, you need to dive into ink first. Keep swimming for a few seconds to gain speed then jump and tilt the left joystick in the opposite direction of where you're going.
You can also do a squid roll vertically! Do this while swimming up walls then jump and tilt the left joystick upward or downward.
When you do a Squid Roll, your character will glow briefly in the air. The Splatoon 3 Nintendo Direct confirmed that when this happens, you slightly repel ink from opponents. This is very helpful when you're trying to get away from enemies.
