I would work on an extended butterfly first. Split grip inverted hold are the hardest for me. There are also a couple of tutorials floating around in the aysha threads that may be of help.

The split grip aysha is my strongest aysha as its the first one I learned. Then I learned twisted grip aysha then elbow grip and this week I just got my forearm aysha. So from the extended butterfly , lower both legs down into a V. Keep the same push pull split grip in place and make sure your hips are out and away from the pole. The body must be facing the pole dead centered but away from the pole with both arms straight doing the push pull action. To get out, you can clamp your legs on the pole like in a basic invert leg position. Or I then lift my legs up to one side of the pole into a straight edge split grip from my ayasha and lower my legs to the floor as slow as i can. Practice it all with crash mat and/or spotter. HOPE THAT HELPS. -
