Anyone use air shocks?

I use coilovers, but would like to try air shocks. Lots to choose from. Anyone have experience with them on a hot rod?

Years ago. The issue I had was they all leak some. I had the same experience with bags. They work good but unless you are prepared to check the air every time, you need a on board air supply.
 
Looking at specs, all I see are the compressed length and the extended length. But how does length vary with air pressure and a given load? And do air shocks have a real shock absorber in them, or are they just long skinny air bags? I'll bug some of the makers and report what I find.
