The gel composition includes some amount of a Septon J-Series thermoplastic elastomer material, and/or some amount of a Septon V-Series thermoplastic elastomer material, and/or some amount of a Septon Q-Series thermoplastic elastomer material. The cushion locking liner further includes a distally-located connecting element for coupling the liner to the socket of a prosthesis.
