A heavy, right-leaning sans with sharply tapered terminals and pronounced stroke modulation that creates a chiseled, aerodynamic look. Counters are generally tight and the joins are firm, giving the forms a compact, muscular texture in words. Curves are rounded but brisk, with angled cutoffs on many strokes that emphasize forward motion; several letters show small notches or ink-trap-like cut-ins at joins and apertures. The lowercase is tall and sturdy with single-story a and g, and the numerals share the same dense, slanted construction for strong texture at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where a strong, kinetic voice is needed. It works particularly well for sports identities, event promotion, and packaging that benefits from bold impact and a sense of speed.
The overall tone is fast, assertive, and energetic, with a distinctly vintage athletic flavor. Its slant and sharp terminals project urgency and momentum, while the bold massing reads confident and attention-grabbing.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum display impact with a forward-leaning, athletic rhythm and sculpted terminals that add character beyond a plain oblique sans. Stroke modulation and notched joins reinforce a tough, performance-oriented personality while keeping letterforms straightforward and legible in large settings.
The design’s tight spacing and dense black shapes create a strong word silhouette, especially in mixed case. At smaller sizes the compact counters and sharp joins may benefit from generous tracking and short line lengths to keep forms from crowding.
