Lindemann is the first German man to medal at Worlds (bronze in 2004) since Norbert Schramm took the silver in 1983. He is also the first male skater from Germany to win Junior Worlds (in 2000). Lindemann started to skate when he was four years old. He wanted to switch to ice hockey when he was 12 years old, but his mother stopped him. His skating idol was three time World Champion Elvis Stojko (CAN). Lindemann also admires speed skater Gunda Niemann-Stirnemann for her competitive spirit. Lindemann missed the past three seasons almost completely due to illness and injuries but celebrated a comeback by winning his seventh National title in Dec 2009.
