Natália Šubrtová

Natália Šubrtová, born 1 May 1989 in Kezmarok, is a retired Slovak alpine skier who worked as a sighted guide and became an eleven-time Paralympic champion. She was the guide of the visually impaired skier Henrieta Farkasova. At the 2010 Winter Paralympics at Whistler Creekside the pair won three gold medals, in the women's giant slalom, super combined and super-G for visually impaired skiers, and a silver medal in the women's downhill. At the 2011 IPC Alpine Skiing World Championships in Sestriere, Italy, the same pair won four gold medals in the women's visually impaired classes, in the giant slalom, super combined, downhill and slalom, and also took a bronze medal in the team event. As a guide she skis ahead of her partner and gives spoken directions, so the medals are shared by the skier and the guide.
