Claim 11:
12. A prosthetic leg for a residual limb, comprising:
a socket comprising a socket opening, a base, a sidewall, an interior and an exterior, wherein the sidewall comprises an anterior section, a posterior section, a medial section and a lateral section respectively extending a sidewall length from a sidewall inferior end to a sidewall superior end, wherein the inferior ends of the sidewall sections are connected around a perimeter of the base, wherein the superior ends of the sidewall sections surround the socket opening, and wherein the anterior section, the posterior section, the medial section, the lateral section and the base each further comprising a respective mounting point;
a liner removably situated within the interior of the socket, wherein the liner comprises a kit of modular pads comprising an anterior pad, a posterior pad, a medial pad, a lateral pad, and an inferior pad, wherein each of the anterior pad, the posterior pad, the medial pad, the lateral pad, and the inferior pad comprise an outer side spaced from an inner side by a pad thickness, wherein at least one of the anterior pad, the posterior pad, the medial pad, the lateral pad, and the inferior pad are releasably connected to the respective mounting point on the anterior section, the posterior section, the medial section, the lateral section and the base in a kit assembly, wherein the residual limb is inserted into the socket opening and abuts the inner side of at least one of the anterior pad, the posterior pad, the medial pad, the lateral pad, and the inferior pad in an engaged position, wherein the liner holds the residual limb in the engaged position with a friction fit, wherein the respective mounting point on each of the medial section and the lateral section comprise an aperture in the sidewall, wherein the mounting point on each of the anterior section, the posterior section and the base comprise a recess, wherein the outer side of each of the anterior pad, the posterior pad, the medical pad, the lateral pad and the interior pad further comprise a protrusion, wherein the respective protrusions on the anterior pad, the posterior pad and the inferior pad are received in the respective recesses in the anterior section, the posterior section and the base, and wherein the respective protrusions on the medial pad and the lateral pad are received in the respective in the respective apertures in the medial section and the lateral section;
a handle comprising a post and an arcuate grip, wherein the post comprises a post inferior end and a post superior end spaced by a post length along an anterior vertical axis, wherein the post inferior end is connected to the superior end of the anterior section of the sidewall, wherein the arcuate grip is connected to the post superior end opposite from the post inferior end, wherein the arcuate grip further comprises a hand section and a body, wherein the hand section comprises a first angle of curvature within a transverse plane, and wherein the anterior vertical axis is radially spaced from a center vertical axis which intersects a center point of the socket opening and the base;
a pylon comprising a proximal end and a distal end spaced by a length, and wherein the proximal end is connected to the socket on the exterior of the socket; and
a footplate connected to the distal end of the pylon.
