"Oh please mr super talented kiteloop guy...please stop jumping and

filming and crashing your kite within our staging area. I'm sorry to bother

you as you are doing such important impressive stuff...so greatfull that

you even took the time to listen to my concerns...please ...i know my

sport sucks and you are so cool...did i mention that i'm your biggest fan...i

hate to ask but can we give you some cash to share this spot...we promise

not to raise our voices...and you can say "I love you" or "f*** off" anytime

you want. We could also give you some danky nugs and ice cold hienekins

for all the trouble we've caused you."

windsurfers need to show this kind of respect and maybe...just maybe

ruben and the bong brigade will give them some space...after, and only

after he's had his fun.

Dude, he is 17... believe me he has a really nice attitude for a 17 year old guy that travels around the world to kite and have fun.

Ok Ruben, you're right we weren't there... to me the video made you guys look pretty bad, but you did the right thing by walking away in the end... so hell with it all... maybe the lady is crazier than we can imagine.

WINDOW MAN YOU' RE a facking kook!

Dammn dude (window kook guy), you better get a life, and i didn't say that your sport sucks, i say you suck! And for the thousand time i was only there for 2 days and they asked me if i could jump outside the orange bouys and i did, maybe not for a couple times....but if you make such a big deal of this, come over and i'll show you where you can jump and fly...need a hand?
Ow but the Heineken beers are always welcome, and my bong hitting brigade will love some too...so just take a tray...cheeers!
Jeez you're such a dumbass...over it...

Yo Pedro wassup men, yeah offcourse i voted on you, you know what power is, so it's the right thing! See ya soon men...

Mykrowyre, cool, fair enough!

Ruben is a good kid. Friendly, great for the sport, pushing it to new limits. I thought the video was pretty funny and I'm glad to see some real footage posted as opposed to a piece scrubbed by some PR rep or lawyer. Sure, I cringed a bit at the interaction w/ the windsurfers but I'm guessing this was an exception and the result of days of building tension (from other comments in the video). All the same, what is he 17 years old or something? Take that into account before you give him a hard time for what may be occasional bad judgement...I'm sure we all made some questionable decisions at that age and none of us were in the limelight like he is with a lot more tempations and opportunities to get filmed in the process. He's alright! :)

The camermans behaviour in the video is appalling and childish. The woman is really upset becuase she thinks he is encouraging someone to behave dangerously. There is absolutely no reason to swear at that woman and then insult her all she did was splash a bit of water at his camera. How big is that woman even Ruben is about a foot taller than her she must be tiny. I don't think Ruben needs to abuse her aswell. I think she is appealing to the camerman is the adult ( I know he does'nt behave like one) and Ruben looks about 13. When she points out some old guy walking in his windsurfer of 70 Ruben acts a little sheepish and apologises. Just because the camerman is acting like a tough guy it doesn't mean you have to copy him. I think he realises his mistake in the end.
