Picking up fallen surfer

Good evening all. I wanted to know how everyone here who surfs pick up their fallen rider while having their boats listing to the port or starboard side.

Quick note: I have surfed behind my boat and have been successful in picking up riders while only using stock ballast.

Quick note: Will be using fat sacks tomorrow to get a bigger wake.

Here is the scenario:

Boat is listed over with stock ballast and bags on the port side. When the rider falls how do you pick them up?

Do you turn to starboard to always maintain eye contact with rider? Is this possible with the boat leaning to the port side?

Thanks.
