I was on a port tack then downlooped hard thru and accross the window while at the same time trying to "crack the whip". I almost got it a couple times but it stalled upwind of me. I was able to get it past dead upwind which was promising.
One thing I learned is that the lines must be tight the whole way or it falls every time.
good luck, let me know if you find another technique that works.
