A compact, heavy oblique sans with tight internal counters and a tall, condensed stance. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, giving bowls and terminals a squared-off softness rather than true circularity. Strokes are uniformly thick with minimal modulation, producing dense silhouettes and strong texture in lines of text. Corners are consistently rounded, and the slant creates forward momentum while keeping overall forms sturdy and block-like.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and short display copy where maximum punch and a fast, forward-leaning rhythm are desirable. It works well in sports and performance-oriented branding, packaging callouts, and bold signage, especially when space is tight and a condensed footprint is helpful.
The font projects speed and force: assertive, high-energy, and built for impact. Its compressed width and strong slant evoke athletic branding, motorsport graphics, and attention-grabbing headlines. The overall tone is modern and utilitarian rather than elegant or delicate.
Likely designed as an impact-first display face that combines condensed proportions with a strong oblique stance for speed and intensity. The rounded-rectilinear construction suggests an intention to feel technical and modern while remaining robust and highly legible at large sizes.
The bold weight and narrow set make word shapes compact and dark, with small apertures and counters that can close up at smaller sizes. The numeral forms match the same squared-rounded logic and appear optimized for strong presence in short bursts rather than extended reading.
