In dismount I was taught that when you are in inverted crucifix, put your neck and hands in position (hands by crotch) then crunch your legs down until your knees pretty much hit your hands and then release the pole.

Make sure you tuck your chin to your chest and look at the ceiling as you get your hands into place. Your butt should be away from the pole. As you get better at finding the right spot you won't need as long to set up!

Exactly what the other 2 ladies said: Slide feet down as close to hands as possible so butt is way out, and tuck chin in to get collarbone away from pole! Also make sure that at first you try this with bent tucked knees, then work your way to straightening one leg, then both. Another way to see where your hands should go is to Shoulder mount up to crucifx, leaving hands as the initially are on the pole, then seeing where they are exactly. Good luck!
