Use two Phillips head screwdrivers. You just stick them through the holes, then take something sturdy like a heavy duty wrench or even a hammer and give it two SHARP taps counter clockwise. Then you should be able to get it apart. It's not about hitting it as hard as you can although you do have to be firm, it's how fast you whack it that "shocks" it loose. If you just stick the tools through and pull on them, you'll bend the metal around the holes (this cuts your skin when you go over it poling)
Yes- Its all about leverage- you can use screw drivers. Unfortunately we no longer have the Tube release tools in stock as the Original XP and parts are not longer in production. My recommendation having personally had this experience with my Original XP and no tools- I took it to a local hardware store and had them put it in a vice grip to release it for me. Also try spraying WD40 around the seam and through the holes and let it sit- and try putting a cold icepack on the joint. Hope this helps! Thanks!
