Yes. Ruby will look for the method in your subclass, then go up the class hierarchy to the superclass and check there for the method there, calling it if it's found. So a method that just contains 'super' [although not 'super()' as that calls super with no arguments] is doing the same job as the method not being defined in the subclass.
