A heavy, forward-slanted sans with rounded-rectangle (superellipse) construction and squared terminals softened by generous corner radii. Strokes stay largely uniform, with broad, blocky forms and compact internal counters that keep the silhouette dense. The rhythm is energetic and slightly condensed in the apertures, with simplified joins and sturdy diagonals that hold up at display sizes. Numerals and capitals share the same muscular, streamlined geometry for a consistent, logo-like texture.
Best suited to high-impact display work such as sports identities, event posters, promotional headlines, and bold UI titling where the slant can add momentum. It can also work on packaging or merch graphics that need a strong, modern stamp, especially when set with comfortable tracking and ample line spacing.
The overall tone is fast and assertive, suggesting motion and impact without feeling rough or distressed. Its rounded geometry adds a modern, engineered friendliness that reads as sporty and contemporary rather than industrial. The strong slant and mass give it an attention-grabbing, headline-first voice.
The font appears designed to deliver a streamlined, performance-oriented look by combining a strong oblique stance with rounded-rectangular geometry and dense, simplified letterforms. It prioritizes punchy readability and consistent, logo-ready shapes over delicate detail.
The design leans on angular cuts and diagonals (notably in letters like A, K, N, V, W, X) contrasted with rounded bowls, creating a crisp, aerodynamic feel. Counters are relatively small for the weight, so spacing and size will matter to keep text from darkening in longer passages.
