KING STO N DEA DBEA TS
R O A R K R E V I VA L V O L U M E 1 4 : “ K I N G S T O N D E A D B E AT S ” SPRING 2018 COLLECTION Dem say - “Dreadlocks, the time is now. Stand up fight for your rights.” An adequate calling card for Roark to say the least, and one that drew our adventurer to the heart of the Caribbean to explore culture, coastline and the creative consumption of Ganja. Jamaica is land driven by an underlying rhythm that infiltrates both ones feet and soul. It’s also a place that exudes contrast, whether it be political, colonial, economical or cultural. Jamaica’s path was truly established in the Island’s formative years when pirates used its deep bays and treacherous reefs to hide treasure, spend money, enjoy life and foster a general sense of brutal rebelliousness. The music lights up the streets and rural communities with an anthem that’s unique to the land and its history. The reggae movement that began in the 1960’s is still the heartbeat of the people and continues to encapsulate the complexity of Jamaican society.
Most of Jamaica lies in the shadows of the tourist industry - off the beaten path with little economic fortitude, but a resilience and depth of culture that Roark had never seen. Stepping off the plane and into our old Defender was no different than meandering through Bob Marley’s “Catch a Fire” or running around town with Leroy Horse Mouth Wallace in the “Rockers” movie set in the 1970’s. Not a whole lot has changed outside of the tourist trough resorts, which is not a good thing economically but has preserved a rich complexity of the Jamaican Riddem.
Roark’s adventure began in Kingston 6 on the stomping grounds of Sister Nancy, the Marley’s and our trusted guide Luke “the Stone Bar.” Kingston is as deteriorated as it is beautiful, as rich as it is poor, as quiet as it is loud and is in conflict as much as it lives in harmony, a tailor-made base for a man like Roark to be absorbed. We explored radical Bobo Rastafari spirituality at Bull Bay and were sucked into a Nyabinghi trance on a mythical ship leaving Babylon en route to Mother Africa, an experience never to be shed. Peppered with reefs, cobblestone points and sand bars - we were introduced to some fine albeit fickle waves by Stone Bar and brother Wilmot. The Blue Mountains called us from their majestic perch above Kingston offering exotic coffee beans and rutted out trails to ride by way of motorbike. The Twyman Family Farm hosted Roark’s addiction, sharing its beloved coffee beans, process and superstition at 5,000 feet. From there, we set sail from Kingston Harbor to Pigeon Island in search of solace. The deserted island was an escape to simpler times with days rife with smoking weed, free diving and an odd tutelage from errant fisherman turn drug runners – a pedestrian however interesting encounter for Roark. Back on the main island of Jamaica, the adventure was capped by a chance evening at “Sharon’s Hotspot” in Port Antonio full of Red Stripe, Rum & Ting, vintage dance hall jams and the friendly spirit of the Jamaican people.
The collection for Spring 2018 is inspired by these happenings, Jamaican history, songs of old and artifacts collected along the way. The colors are bright, the content is decidedly Caribbean and the approach to design is purposeful - delivering product geared for your expedition on the road less traveled in Jamaica. The design inspiration is split into three directions: High Seas & an Irie Breeze, Kingston Ranking and Natural Mystic. Join us on a walk through the most positive place on Earth. Please enjoy responsibly… Photography by Dylan Gordon, Jamie Thomas and Ryan Hitzel

Kingston is the heart of the local population. Not a common destination for the traveller, it’s cluttered with a feverish atmosphere of the young and old. The energy of the city is always high with a smattering of characters wandering and working to a different ryddem. Here we find recording studios, dance halls, daytime street scenes, markets and Jamaican foods from land and sea. Rural and gritty, the city and architecture seems to be at a stand still trapped in the late seventies, populated mostly with old buildings. It kept us on edge, but alive as we navigated our wanderings. “Hot spots” light up with 4-6 stools to serve white rum & ting, locally known as “rude to parents” while blasting Dancehall, Reggae and Hip-hop. Contrary to it’s labeling as supremely dangerous city, the people bring bright and friendly energy painting walls and buildings with bold color and graphic designs. Kingston is a confluence of class, texture, culture, music and history - notorious from the pillaging days of Henry Morgan to the politcal strife of Bob Marley. It’s dna & color inspired the collection.

“HIGH SEAS & AN IRIE BREEZE” On the high seas surrounding Jamaica, one discovers different coastlines and spiritual meanderings. From light sands to volcanic beaches - the beauty of the coastline is very natural and undisturbed. In search of waves and fish we sailed on an irie breeze from Kingston around to Pidgeon Island. Along the journey, we explore reef passes, pirate’s rum and the quiet glide of sailing the Caribbean. We found solace after being immersed in the hustle of the city,with a calming vibe and spiritual connection to the sea. The 46 ft.vessel reached our destination late, greeted by soldier crabs and freedom. There was a variety of Jamaican vegetation, reef life and color to inspire our print direction. We had visitors by the second day - fisherman by day and drug-runner’s by night. Their boat was aged and unkempt, exposing the character that had developed over time. Back on the main island, paint splattered fishing boats, well-worn decks, faded and soaked seaside buildings all contribute to the visual storyline.

Jamaica is primarily rural - made up of many villages and townships near the sea and high into the interior. What makes these communities so unique is the spirit that lives in them. Many of the villages are seemingly isolated or have suffered destruction from hurricanes and don’t attract many tourists. Often villages are associated with a nearby plantation or small fishing community. The people express their positive spirit through color, music and art. Similar to the city, buildings are bright and patterned. The roadside is littered in small pubs that bring plenty of opportunity to hit a white rum and get tuned up on Rastafari. As Bob Marley so eliquently wrote - “There’s a natural mystic blowinging through the air.” The Blue Mountains are legendary for their mood and appearence, bearing the most expensive coffee in the world while James Bond was written on the shores overlooking idealic tropical reefs. It’s hard to avoid the inspiration that spawn from the Jamaican countryside, “If you listen carefully now, you will hear.”

“OPEN ROADS, OPEN MINDS”
V S S L : Roark is always looking to live somewhere between freedom and chaos. So we jumped at the chance to build a survival kit with VSSL. Fortunately we didn’t have to use it, but had the opportunity arose we were covered. We combined various VSSL survival tins suited for the tropics housed in the waterproof aluminum cache with a built-in 200 lumin LED flashlight, oil-filled compass and carabiner.
R O B M A C H A D O : The Drifter is a long lost cousin to Roark and a member of the brotherhood. Roark wanted something cruisy for Jamaica. A board that didn’t take too much effort to ride and that fit the mood. Rob agreed and offered up his “Go Fish” twin fin. The shaper, board design, conditions and destination were in perfect alignment for the project. Our “Hineapple” print topped it off with some island vibes. Rob describes it further, “This board just makes me want to surf… no matter what the waves are like. It flies in small to weak waves, and if it’s overhead and pumping it draws unique lines, allowing me to approach waves differently and explore new lines.” Look for a few Limited Edition Roark X Go Fish boards come Spring 2018.
E L E C T R I C : Electric’s passionate designers painstakingly created eyewear for our expedition to the Himalayas, and now outfit us with an assortment of shades and goggles on all trips. Roark always exudes calmness and cool under the most extreme conditions - Electric punctuates the vibe with eyewear to match. Jamaica offered up the perfect opportunity to test the optics. Sun and water were a constant so the polarized lenses were helpful when hunting fish and enjoying panoramic views without stressing our vision. The last thing one needs in Jamaica is stress. Thanks boys.
S L O W T I D E : Who doesn’t need a good looking towel on a an island? We’re proud to announce a collaboration with Slowtide on two towels. They have a keen eye for graphic prints that stand out on the beach, and we specialize in going to beaches where there are no people. Perfect. Look for them in Spring 2018.
S T R A Y E : Jamie Thomas called us recently to talk about a project called Straye. It’s a new shoe company that thrives on chaos and unpredictability. We support all of Jamie’s endeavors and are excited to represent the Straye on the road. Their shoes debut in the Summer of 2017, and combine a fair bit of nostalgia mixed with modern detail. There are rumors of a Spring 2018 collaboration tied to Jamaica and the Cheif.
