Gucci #24HourAce | Steffen Grap and Karo Rose

Steffen Grap is a German model and skateboarder. Along with model Karo Rose, Grap creates a multi-disciplinary practice of activating urban space through fashion and skate videos. For #24HourAce, Grap and Rose riff on the genre of the skate video in Berlin, presenting equal parts pulling tricks, hanging out, and wandering around the city. The heavily textured videos are as improvisational as skating itself, drawing on the urban environment. The new Ace sneakers provide a vehicle for the exploration.
