first off all you need to get the timing down when to shoot the zair. if you do it early you will shoot over the players heads, if you do it too late it wont extend. the next would be to practicing keeping horizontal distance to space zair efficiently. thats all to it. just need practice on that.

for gimping:
zair has a long animation and you will have to know when you can act again after shooting a zair. you could practice this by jumping of the stage shooting a zair and mash the jump button i guess. youll see that its actually quite laggy. for the wop i would suggest Zair-> Zair or Zair->jump+Zair->zair depending on how your opponent is moving
