Cactus RF60X flash is stuck on a Canon 580EX II stand
This seems so strange to me for such a simple accessory. What in the world would cause the Canon speedlite stand to become stuck on the RF60X? (Yes, the locking ring is loosened). I applied considerable pressure, wiggling, etc. it will not move. Honestly, I am considering using power tools to surgically cut the thing away from the hot shoe. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this.

It might be the locking pin being stuck.
Perhaps try to use something like an automotive feeler gauge to get between the hot-shoe and the flash foot to manipulate the locking pin.
