In February, Skate Canada, the governing board of Canadian figure skating, announced that it was embarking on a campaign to change the image of men’s skating – from sometimes frilly and flamboyant to more of an emphasis on power, speed, and endurance.

The cast of Noah's Arc. Top row (l to r): Darryl Stephens, Douglas Spearman, Jonathan Julian, Christian Vincent. Bottom row (l to r): Rodney Chester, Jensen Atwood, Wilson Cruz, Gregory Kieth
