Well that depends do you wanna do it handle passed or wrapped? That makes a HUGE difference. I wanna learn it handle passed so here is what I know.

Make sure your BS 180s are nice as well as your rolls of course. Ok your edge is slightly different than normal I would start a little closer into the wake to generate more of a progressive edge. You need to do this so you have a little extra slack when you leave the wake to help you make the handle pass. Instead of throwing your roll back behind you so much you kinda need to bitch it some and bring your shoulders down to the wake(ala a bitched roll). You should go for the pass pretty early on this as in once you leave the first wake. My friend Blake does these (although not in a while) he usually has the handle pass done before he's completly inverted this especially helps if your want to eventually learn a KGB. Once you get the handle pass the hard part is over just try and find the other shore and ride it out. Good Luck let me know how it goes.
Later,
Jim Bob
