Take a progressive cut. ya gotta load the line up. then about 3 feet from the wake start to flatten the board out so that the wake will pop you up. Drop your Back shoulder down to your Lead knee(for me I ride goofy so its my Left shoulder to my right knee.). Halfway through the rotation you need to let go with your lead hand(this will end up being your back hand after the trick). You really don't have time to spot the water before landing it. It's kinda wierd at first but after a few times you will get the feel of the rotation.

the way i do it is, charge the wake, ease off a bit right before take off, then i throw my back shoulder towards the opposite wake such that my chest is open towards the boat, tuck my back ear to my shoulder and it all comes around
look this is an esay trick if you do it right! get a good porgresive edge ride to the top of the wake an get good pop!!!!!! i can not stress that enough. if you throw it to early you will will not get all the way around and case the other wake, so ride to the top. once you have done that start your front roll and pull the rope to your right hip with your right hand with your left hand go for the grab and it will come around every time!
