Hello All,

Has anyone come up with a clever solution to the age-old problem of gel
liners rolling down when a transtibial amputee has a small residual limb
with a large fleshy funnel shaped thigh? I've tried heating and customizing
the liners but they still roll.

Thank you very much for your help.
