if it performed "all the energy absorption", then when you deployed the shute you would feel nothing, as this is definitely not the case, then the static elements in the harness, leaders, and strands, etc do shock load the occupant, do you think this is a gentle shock loading ? how much force is generated in terms of G force ? this loading is way higher than a slump onto a top rope which is being touted as severe and dangerous by others here on the forum @ pmonks, which is untrue,
