What about Vanessa Crone?

The avid ice-dance followers probably remember Vanessa Crone very well.
When it was known that her partnership with Paul Poirier was over many fans were stunned and shocked. Shortly after that news was known, Poirier announced his new partner: Piper Gilles.
But Vanessa had to wait for over a year until she found danish ice dancer Nikolaj Sorensen. Sadly, that partnership didn't really last cause a few weeks later it was dissolved.
So, Paul is going on with his partnership with Piper but what about Vanessa?
Well, Vanessa hasn't found a new partner but she won't drop competitive figure skating. In fact, on 30/07/2012, she announced on her facebook page that she will compete in ladies singles.

Competing by herself isn't a new experiencce for Vanessa cause she took part of the canadian championships in singles back in 2007/2008 (junior level). The future will tell how well Vanessa will do.

I wish her lots of luck for the future and I hope she achieves success.
