Lipkes story is unique ... He is the first German national to compete amongst the 45 best surfers in the world. For the surfing world this marks an historic moment for the sport, and has big strategic benefits with the German market becoming more and more important.
Its funny because I really liked the idea of a documentary at first, says Marlon. Only after a while I realized how hard it is to be filmed from sunrise to sun-down and beyond, especially during the tough times, when you are down, and the last thing you want is someone sticking a camera in your face asking questions. But thats the important thing... and thats what makes it interesting.
