A rounded, slanted sans with a forward-leaning posture and broad, open proportions. Strokes stay largely monolinear, with smooth curves and softly finished terminals that keep the texture even across words. Counters are generous and shapes skew toward oval geometry, giving letters a fast, streamlined silhouette while maintaining clear interior space. The overall rhythm is steady and legible, with a slightly compressed vertical feel that reads well in short lines and larger sizes.
Best suited for display work where a sense of movement is desirable—headlines, brand marks, poster typography, and product or packaging graphics. It can also work for short UI labels or signage when set with adequate spacing, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The font communicates motion and ease: energetic without being aggressive, and modern with a noticeable retro-sport influence. Its rounded forms and consistent stroke weight make it feel friendly and approachable, while the slant adds a sense of speed and momentum.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean sans foundation with a speed-driven, contemporary slant and softened geometry. It aims to balance punchy presence with smooth readability, offering a sporty, upbeat tone for attention-grabbing typography.
In the sample text, the oblique angle and broad letterforms create a strong horizontal flow, producing a distinctive headline voice. Figures follow the same rounded, forward-leaning construction, helping mixed text and numerals feel visually unified.
