I learned it coming down from my twisted grip handspring. The best advice I can give is to not think of yourself as lowering so much as twisting around. When you're in the twisted grip handspring, you lower a bit and then twist your body to the side. This is what gives the illusion of the Iron X. You can just lower down into the Iron X with your body straight out, but it takes a lot more energy that way. Hope that helps!
ok i get what ur saying about twisting into it, i guess i didnt think about that, my hips still need to be up, ok thank u!!
