when i was learning 3s, i kept over rotating them.
when i got the hang of them i found that i was trying to spin way to fast and hard. try and be more relaxed on the lip and take your time getting around to 3.
a lot of the reason people mess up spins is because they tense up. just stay relaxed and it will come

i can only spot my landings on a big jump. liek on a 30 footer i can spot a 3, but on a 15 foot or a 20 i will spin too fast to make it and i cant spot it, but i usually land it. try hitting a bigger jump and you will just automatically spot it.
