Default fiberglass mast question


Anyone have suggestions on a method I might try to "twist" and collapse
some sections of my telescoping fiberglass mast? I put it up several days
ago with perhaps a bit too much "vigor" in making sure it would not
collapse on its own and now that I want to stow it away there are a couple
of sections I can not unlock. My grip is good, but the sections are really
tight. I hate to use something mechanical for fear of cracking the
fiberglass and I hate to use a lubricant since the locking requires
friction.

Thoughts ?
