Linda Le Bon

Linda Le Bon (born 20 July 1964) is a para-athlete. She competes for her native country Belgium in para-alpine skiing and for Austria in paraclimbing. She competes in the B2 category, which is for visually impaired athletes. She has a vision impairment as a result of macular degeneration.

Her sight guide for skiing is nominally Pierre Couquelet.

Alpine skiing
Le Bon competed at the 2021 World Para Snow Sports Championships held in Lillehammer, Norway, winning the silver medal in the downhill and super-G events.

Le Bon and her sighted guide and daughter Ulla Gilot qualified to represent Belgium at the 2022 Winter Paralympics held in Beijing, China. Couquelet was originally scheduled to be Le Bon's sighted guide but he was not able to compete as her guide after failing a doping test due to an administrative error related to medication that he takes. Le Bon competed in five alpine skiing events. She was the flag bearer for Belgium during the closing ceremony.

Climbing
Le Bon lives in Mühlbach am Hochkönig and competes for the Austrian Climbing Federation.

She had her competitive debut at the 2023 IFSC Paraclimbing World Cup in Innsbruck where she finished fourth, being merged into the harder B3 category. She won her first medal the following event in Villars, reaching second place in the B3 category. She also competed at the 2023 IFSC Paraclimbing World Championships, reaching fourth place. In the 2024 season, she won her first gold medal (B2) in Innsbruck, after coming in sixth (B3) at the first competition in Salt Lake City.
