It depends on the jump if it's poppy you have to lean forward and try and spot your landing I know it's hard because 3s are a pretty blind trick but I feel the better you can spot your landing the more better you can land.

Don't lean forward but keep pressure from your shins at the front of your boots, bring your feet up or grab

Are you using poles? If not, poles will help you stay in a more aggressive forward stance while learning.
