What comes to mind when I think of Ruben Castillo is:
* texas flatland in the '90s
* riding a black GT Pro Freestyle Tour in an ad in BMX Plus! circa early '90s
* the Trend BMX video
* the Ride BMX interview he did when he said something along the lines of ".. you can have too much weed in your system, be LSDed out, but BMX will bring you back."
* mc circles on the frame before anyone else was thinking of them
... anyone else?

"the GT Show revolutionized flatland...... Ruben Castillo designed it against the grain of what everyone else was doing.... .... building an ultra-compact, light, flatland specific bike..... seems like a LOT of bikes copied the sizing and angles after that..... especially for small riders.... look how small flatland bikes started getting after the Show."
