Right and Left Thru from a Right-Hand Wave

Notice (2nd image, other side): when you do a ‘right and left thru’,
you (momentarily) have a (right-hand) ocean wave.

So, if you start
in a right-hand wave ...

... and hear the call
‘right and left thru’ ...

... just finish the call
with the courtesy turn!
