Simply flip the bike upside-down and they unlock and you can flip the QR levers open and pull out the skewers like a regular QR.
Then just insert your regular QR's.
Zefal locking skewers. http://www.zefal.com/en/locks/81-lock-n-roll.html

PS - they are exposed cams, so don't use with horizontal drop outs, if you got 'em on the rear wheel. Only use for vertical drop outs.
Pretty sure I read somewhere those can be opened by holding a magnet up to them.
