Gas springs legality

I read the following rule:
Quote:

....
For the purposes of the FIRST competition, closed-loop pneumatic (gas) shocks are not
considered pneumatic devices, and are permitted additions to the ROBOT.
Does this say that I'm allowed to use gas springs such as those on 5 door cars (on the fifth door) that helps lift the baggage?

Please answer as soon as possible.

Thanks in advanced,
Team 2217
