okay, i'm tryin bigger spins, like 3s and 5s over 30s and stuff, how can i slow it down? i feel like i need to set it a little with a wind up, but that will spin me fast, how can i spin without going too fast

uh first get the spin down, then after you have it down throw in a grab, that'll slow you down naturally

man its pretty hard to explain but do a 3 or 5 on the ground and you will get the feeling.
just dont use as much power on the take-off, as when you jump in smaller jumps.

ohh no i got grabs in my spins like 3 true tail and stuff but i'm just saying that they're fast, and i want to do them over bigger jumps... i'm used to about 5 or 6 feet but want to do it on hits where your about 12-15 feet up, and have more time in the air... so just less windup or set or soemthing?

set the rotation with your shoulders not with your arms.

if you are hitting 30ft dont spin over 5. just keep low and 'feel' smooth.

you dont need to ask about 'how do i slow down my spins when hitting bigger jumps'. it get naturally, you spin slower aoutomaticly, just try and you will understand what i mean

Eh voila

Uh, remember to not put as much force into the spin BUT don't get lazy or else you will pull a 270 to faceplant and then crying.

Do not wind up. Just pop and turn your head. It will slow it down and make it smoother.
