Anterior Posterior Tapered Liner
ALPS AP Tapered prosthetic liner made of HD Gel is designed with a 6 mm anterior and a 3 mm posterior thickness to reduce bunching in the popliteal region and provide a high level of protection to bony areas.
It is indicated for transtibial users with medium and high activity levels who desire greater control and freedom of movement without sacrificing comfort.
Product Description
ALPS AP Tapered Liner is gradually tapered from the thicker anterior to the thinner posterior side to provide freedom of movement to transtibial users.
The 6 mm frontal wall ensures a high level of protection to bony areas.
By combining a high density gel with a limited vertical stretch fabric, this liner minimizes soft tissue movement and reduces vertical pistoning, offering a high level of control of the prosthetic leg.

In 2018 he won the Italian Championship for both the 60-meter and the 200-meter indoor and he was contacted by the Italian Rafting Federation. Sports have always been a fundamental part of his life. It’s what saved him, making him feel like he fits in with everybody else.
