Abstract
A shock absorber assembly, particularly for attenuating shocks transmitted to a person's body, especially to reduce shock to a paratrooper's body during a tethered cargo tandem jump. Specialized elastic absorber units are disposed in series in connection with a tether or strap to maintain the series configuration. A chain reactive shock absorption can be predetermined, and adjusted based on the expected shock(s) of a given jump. The adjustment is accomplished by selecting the number and type of absorber unit(s) provided an any of two (or more) series chains of the assembly. In use, the complete shock absorber assembly is deployed between a cargo tether and a cargo harness.
