I just cant seem to land a big shuvit. I can land small, low popped shuvs not to bad, but when i try to go for some big ones i never stick it. Heres a vid, any tips would be appriciated. Dun worry about the last one, its not even close Rolling Eyes

I looks like you don't have a prob with the rotation. You just need to make sure that when you catch the board that your feet are positioned correctly, land with even pressure on both feet, bend knees, and have a slight edge or carve on your board so that it is less liable to slip away.

try it over a ski bouee, like a litlle one first to get used to it, than go bigger and bigger, and when u feel to go even bigger than that, try to put a foam cube... and also, you should try it bs, and get a wider position on landing...
