A. Initial treatment should consist of an ice pack. Some runners prefer to use a wet towel that has been in the fridge. We recommend you use commercially available ice packs for focused pain relief. Vulkan Hot and Cold packs can be frozen and used on the quadriceps during the acute stage and can be warmed up in the microwave and used when the pain becomes dull to aid healing.

Do skateboard bearings fit quad skate wheels which are attached to 7mm axels?
Q. I recently purchased some hockey quad boots, but the bearings are slow so im looking to swap them with some abec 9s or red bones, but the axels on the skates are 7mm. Im used to 8mm axels and fast speed bearings, which are easy to find at that size. Are skateboard bearings suitable for quad skates with 7mm axels?

A. You would need spacers to make the bearings fit snug over the axles. If no one makes them, you could try some of the brass tubing that you can find in hobby shops. ABEC is meaningless for speed. It relates to how much the bearings can wobble in high speed machinery. If your bearings are really slow, they probably have a grease or heavy gel as a lubricant. Try cleaning out the lubricant and putting in a little oil.

With the momentum of last fall's 5-0 finish to the season in its pocket and a very talented roster, Southern Mississippi is an easy pick for a top-three Conference USA finish.
