Hi all
Can someone tell me what kinds of socket are available for AK amputee, with which you use liners what are basic characteristics of them (kinds of sockets), how is important to exercise with stump.

If I finally get appropriate socket (I really hope so again) I would like to try running (first time without leg). What is minimal configuration for running. Now I have ottobock 3r70 knee and I think I will get flexfoot variflex. Is it hard to learn running.
