Heh, I've done this so many times now that I don't even take the wiper off the arm. I just stand with one foot on a slider and the other on the front tire and slide the blades out.

Not a big deal, just more of a nuisance having to get out in crap weather to snap the blade/wiper.
I tried some different aftermarket wipers for this same reason and found they were no better. Plus, since the aftermarket ones have different adapters to attach to different styles of arms there was some additional wind noise at highway speed - I think the RainX ones were the worst for this with an actual whistling sound. Luckily I kept my OEM ones and went back to them.
