Scoop more, or just land when it's at 270 degrees and pivot the rest.

ok first of all, are you sure you have a good pop shuv-it? because if you can only do a shuv-it where it basically powerslides quickly around on the ground you probably won't be able to get these just because it will be alot harder for it to get the full rotation if it doesn't get any air time. then for the pop you want it harder than a pop shove-it and you want to try to visualize you kicking your back foot in a diagonal direction towards your back and the nose of the board, so basically if you look over your lead shoulder thats the direction you kinda want to kick the tail. this direction will give the board the spin for it and also keep the board under you. pop the tail in the diagonal direction and also down to smack the tail (the tail hitting the ground will give the shove-it lift or "pop"). chill there for a sec in mid-air and wait for the board to come around and stomp it down. land and ride away style. also if you can do 360 flips then the pop for the back foot is pretty much the same as the 360 shove it, just dont flick your front foot (and maybe have your toes of your back foot a little more on the tail instead of hanging off a little because it might flip it slightly). if this and alot of practice doesn't help then come back and be a little more specific with your problem.
try that and practice. theres not too much too these if you got the shove, its just kicking it harder and practicing.
