Tim Lobinger (born 3 September 1972 in Rheinbach, North Rhine-Westphalia) is a retired German pole vaulter.
His discipline is pole vault and he has been an elite competitor since the 1990s. His best results came in 1997 and 1999 when he jumped over 6.00 meters.[1][2] His best medals so far have been silver at the 1998 European Athletics Championships and the 2006 European Athletics Championships. He has also won bronze at the 2002 European Championships in Athletics and the 2006 IAAF World Indoor Championships.
Success has eluded him at the Olympics however. In Atlanta in 1996 he placed seventh. In Sydney in 2000 he achieved 13th, and in Athens in 2004, eleventh. At the 2005 World Championships in Helsinki he jumped over only 5.50 meters, well under his abilities.
Lobinger completed a decathlon in 1999 and cleared 5.76 m in the pole vault – a decathlon best for the ten-event contest.[3]
Lobinger is married to triple jumper Petra Lobinger although they are now separated. He is the father of two children Kendra (born 1995) and Lex (born 1998).
