Airbag Q: Is this a cheap/stupid way to do it?

I seen a guy out this weekend with a dropped C10. The first time I seen the truck drive by me, my friend said "that truck is bagged" and I said it wasn't, because I didn't see the bed cut at all. Well, it went by again, and this time I could DEFINATELY tell it was bagged, but I didn't see the bed cut at all. So, I followed the guy for a few minutes and finally caught up with him in a parking lot and I asked him if he was bagged or what? He said he was a 7"/9" drop (3" Spindle, 3" Control Arm, 1" Spring/5" Flip Kit, 4" Shackle & Hanger) and he said that he was bagged too. I was like "WTF?" so I looked under and sure enough I seen bags. He had a load helper type airbag setup (Looked like the BellTech AirJack setup)

The front had the airbag inside the spring (Airwave, isn't that called?)
Is that a cheap/crappy way to do your airbags, or is it acceptable? He couldn't really go that low, because when he hit the switch the axle was on the C-notch. (it was PRETTY low, but not laying body )
