Les, your air brakes are designed to hold with no air pressure. Big springs activate the brakes and your air pressure opens the springs to allow you to move. The air brake works by releasing air on the brake cylinder when you press brakes. So with no air you ain't going nowhere.
On the easy out it has a reverse thread so when you unscrew (counterclockwise) the threads bite into the fitting to unscrew it. Did you tap the easy out into the fitting? It needs to be pretty tight before you start turning it.
Also a standard ratchet should fit on the end of the easy out, make it a lot easier.
