Kyle,
After a few attempts you can get a feel for things. There are few starter tips that can help out. (This is for a left foot forward rider)
After getting the pop from the wake off your toes, look into the boat. You don't have to throw your head over your shoulder, just look for the boat. Make sure you ride the wake and stand tall while doing this.
Hold onto the rope with both hands close to your right hip, til about half way through the flip, the 180 will already be coming around. Let go with your front hand (left) and keep the hand close to your right hip. Keep your eyes on the landing and ride away on your heels like you just did a ts 180.
Best way is to try a few, but keep in mind where to look and your handle position.
