BENCH ALIGNMENT (Figure 3 & 4)
SAGITTAL PLANE
• Place the ground contact point of the foot module 25–40 mm (1–1½")
in line with load line.
• Determine the appropriate socket flexion according to amputee
requirements.
CORONAL PLANE
• Introduce appropriate socket abduction/adduction.
• Allow for up to 5° of external rotation.
• Achieve proper height approximately 25–50 mm (1–2") taller than the
sound side with shoe to compensate for vertical compression.
Note: The recommendations for bench alignment are used as a
starting point. Definitive alignment will be achieved during dynamic
assessment.

DYNAMIC ALIGNMENT

Physical ability and length of residual limb will affect alignment. Best
performance will be achieved with best achievable symmetry of gait. Each
athlete will have her/his own optimal alignment, which depends on the
individual's running style. Optimal alignment is critical in order to reduce
energy expenditure and eliminate excessive muscle and ligament strain
