Dont think of it as a 3 shuv at all. Put a bit of weight on your back foot and lean over your board as if you were about to do a bs 180 and then throw a 270 shuv which you should catch at halfway through the bs 180. This trick is all about your body position when you throw it.

mcthrust, exactly

according to my made up theory, the sooner you catch the board the more control you have when you're landing.

but for learning i'd aim for catching it at 270 degrees Wink

Learn 270 shuvs to front board first, learn how to catch it like that then eventually land and do a back 90 off, pass the handle or just wrap up. that really helped me.
