I wish PB/AV could work out something to keep Robin on some kind of retainer as both a part-time scout and part-time director/performer, to enable him to scout and shoot first scenes for new models in the west of Europe (which seems to be his terrain of expertise) while the Cz studios focus more or Eastern Europe (including Russia, though EU sanctions are currently destroying that once valuable relationship) and occasional special tours from America (South/Latin and the US).
I've said many times here that I always thought Robin's scenes with FAQ were consistently some of their best, and his own Anal Castings series (was this a collaboration with GG or AV?) also frequently found and introduced new performers who then went on to do great things with both AV/LP in Cz and even internationally.
There are elements in the industry who can scout great models but who can't perform or shoot.

Well Robin can (tried and tested, consistently, with sales to match) do all three. I think he has quite a special skills set within the European industry and frankly it's crazy and short-sighted of the big European companies that he should be waiting for the call instead of on the books as a regular scvout/performer/director.
On top of that (and maybe this sounds like stanning, but with so much 'non-prime' content cluttering the feeds on this site, I feel it's worth stanning those who can make decent content) Robin seems to me to have a rare and special talent for introducing new models, which are very often the scenes on which new performers base their decision about whether they want to continue on the industry or not.
I suspect working with first time performers is not easy at all. Far more time and care and effort investment required than with models with industry experience.
You have to make them feel safe and comfortable in a very weird, unnatural (and potentially scary) new situation. You have to work with the performer's confidence issues and insecurites sensitively and listen to and respect her feelings about how she feels about her own body and skills, and how she feels about shooting what she is shooting. You need to guide them into performing in a way that works on camera, without seeming overpowering or too controlling.
It demands a lot from a director anyway, but when you are combining directing and performing those demands are doubled.
So I think (particularly with the East of Europe committing economic suicide to please Uncle Sam right now) PB and the CZ studios would do very well to strengthen ties with a reliable and respected 'safe pair of hands' working on their behalf in the west of the continent as a dependable hedge against a potential unprecedented decline/collapse in business as currently being conducted in the East.
TL/DR. PB/Cz studios, support Robin and his work. Reasons why above.
