Re: Suction ?????

From FIRST Q&A:

Q: It is it legal to make a mechanical device like a syringe to evacuate air out of an area so as to create a vacuum, thereby taking advantage of atmospheric pressure when attaching to balls?
A: Yes, it is legal.

Not sure this is exactly what you were looking for but yes you can use a pnuematic piston to create a vacuum.
