In 5 min gehts los, das sagte Marlon übrigens gestern nach seinem Heat:
"The waves were definitely contestable and we surfed at a good time of the day with the right tide," Lipke said. "It was a good day and there had been lots of good scores before my heat so I was relaxed and just looked for the better waves. It's a great feeling to surf in an event in Portugal after all that travel in the past two months."
Lipke, who will travel to California next week and join Boal and the rest of the European Dream Tour contingent in Tahiti after that, is a former winner in the Estoril Quiksilver Pro (2007) and will be looking to better his equal 5th place finish from last year this week.
"I have no pressure and I really enjoying the bit of time in Portugal while I can," Lipke said. "I am surfing here with nothing to lose and I am having a good time surfing a WQS event with this state of mind. Compared to last year when every heat could make a difference, it is really pleasant to paddle out here relaxed with absolutely no pressure."
