Re: Screen Door Piston

what joe says is correct, but if you use something like a gas shock (they have them @ pep boys I believe) they displace no air and are legal....

Q: We wish to purchase and use nitrogen-filled shock absorbers from the local Pep Boys store. They are called "Sachs Stabilus gas-charged lift-support", functioning effectively as springs (no air enters or leaves the pistons). May we?

A: Yes, they can be used. For the purposes of the FRC competition, gas shocks are not considered pneumatics.
