The Results of the Mens Open were not a surprise since before starting Marlon had created the atmosphere of collecting one more title. Having had an extremely successful season as the European Junior Champion 2004 and in January 2005 finishing third at the Billabong World Junior Championships at Narrabeeen  Australia. Marlon nevertheless reached with scores that again reinforced why he is the European Junior Champ. Even so Marlon said that he needed to leave for the WQS 6 Star in the Maldives in the spirit of a true Champ Marlon stayed to win the Title. Marlon as a true Champion, gave his winnings to Nico Schaefer, German Long board Vice Champion 2004 who had a horrible Car Accident a few days before the Championship and could not compete.
