So as you can tell by the picture an x-base cuff is called and x-base because of the x's and its a base cuff for most 3d cuffs.
Now when starting an x-base you need a singe and instead of it being even it has to be odd and by 3. So if you add or subtract any beads from it, it has to be by 3. And going off of the picture the connector beads are orange and the regular beads are green, so the 3rd beads of the single have to be a separate color for the connector. Once you have the desired amount of beads thread the string through a the closest connector bead and thread on 3 beads and thread the string through the next connector so it skips over the 2 non connector beads, do that all the way around and when you are done with that tie it off. Next thread the sting up through the beads you just put on to a point in the set of 3 beads (thats the 2nd bead in the point) and thread on 3 beads in this order: 1 regular, 1 connector, 1 regular: and thread the string through the next point. Do that all the way around and tie it off. Now finally thread your sting up through the connector in a point and thread on 2 regular beads and thread your sting through the next connector/point. Do that all the way around and dont forget to pull the string to tighten it, as you do so the cuff will start to come up and take shape properly. Once you have finished going all the way around tie it off and cuff off the extra string. There you go, you have a kandi x-base cuff.
