Solution

Explosively pull from the start and keep increasing speed until the end of the pull when the weight enters its ballistic flight.

Description

You can drill this by squatting and lifting the weight from the ground up in one continuous movement and then adding speed.

The incorrect way can be identified by seeing the clean broken down in a slow lift into hang and then a fast pull while the speed should have started from the ground.
