A suspension line assembly for a parachute assembly, comprising a plurality of suspension lines bound together at a confluence, a first riser extending between the confluence and a first attachment location disposed on a first strap, a second riser extending between the confluence and a second attachment location disposed on a second strap and a cradle disposed between the first riser and the second riser.

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.

A cargo harness comprising a first diagonal strap, a second diagonal strap overlapping the first diagonal strap at a X-crossing. The first diagonal strap may be coupled to the second diagonal strap at a first joint. The cargo harness may also include a cross strap having a first end, a second end and a sleeve disposed between the first end and the second end, wherein the first diagonal strap and the second diagonal strap pass through the sleeve and the sleeve overlaps at least a portion of the x-crossing. In one embodiment, the cargo harness may include a dual-point release strap assembly operably connected to the first and second diagonal strap for connecting a cargo load to a parachute harness.

The present disclosure discloses a landing aid for a parachutist, in particular for a tandem jump or landing with heavy equipment, having an air bag, which protects the parachutist during landing, wherein the air bag has an inflow opening through which air can flow into the air bag in order to fill it by means of the airstream. It is provided that the landing aid comprises a spring element, by means of which the inflow opening is held in the correct position with respect to the air flow and/or an unpacking process of the air bag is supported.

A device for disconnection by a mechanical action includes at least one mechanical connection part, in particular a buckle held closed by spring action, linked to at least one trigger via at least one connecting member, and a release lever configured to be triggered by application of a force according to a predefined opening direction. The disconnect device also includes at least one guide for the connecting member configured to redirect an effort applied on the trigger, when opening is required, towards the mechanical connection part linked to the connecting member, according to the predefined opening direction.
