keep on turning and leading with your head and try your best to keep tucked in and open up around 450.
Good Luck

keeping looking over your shoulder is the main thing. Your body will follow wherever your head looks. Then try to spot at bout 500 degrees and wstomp that shit down! You got it dude!

i had the same problem.. i fixed it by doing a safety grab on my 3's.. then going to a really small jump and trying to spin as hard as i could with a safety grab. (a safety grab is simply grabbing just below your boot) doing this i got some nice 450's washing out into 5s.  after a few of these i went to a bigger jump and nailed my first true 5.  jump was maybe 15 feet and i spun so hard that i opened up probably half of the way through air and stomped it fine.  spinning past 3 is scary at first but once you do it a few times it is sooo fun

a lot easier if you're not hucking it, so make sure the jump is big enough, then you fully pop off the lip, turn your shoulders/upper body in the direction of your spin, the legs will follow, try to keep a nice, controlled position in the air, you'll get used to knowing where you are in your rotation and it'll be easier to stay compact and spinning until you need to stick it
