Just heard that Ruben left Slingshot. In La Ventana and apparently slacking big time on what's happening in the kite world! Couldn't and still can't believe it!! And Youri left SS too? What's going on? Some kind of a major cabinet reshuffle at SS? Anyone got the inside scope here??

Slingshot and Ruben were synonymous over the years for sure but it's a career shift and that happens.

This video Adam/Ruben/Amery made in the Gorge/Rufus back in'08 will always be a favorite though.

Such a great video and now spliced into so many Youtube videos of today. Around the 2:00 minute mark is classic nuking / boosting Gorge madness. I hope Ruben will always be financially rewarded by the industry in anyway he chooses but am bummed he and SS parted ways.

Agreed. My favorite video of all time as well. Ruben and SS seemed like the perfect Power-House match! He always rode with so much power and that video manifests that perfectly.

Hands down one of the sickest kite video edits ever. Even now with people doing many handle passes and "harder" tricks, the style and grace in that vid is not easily matched. One of my favorites.
