A slanted sans with sturdy, low-contrast strokes and rounded, geometric counters. Curves are smooth and broadly elliptical, while terminals are clean and mostly blunt, giving the shapes a crisp, contemporary finish. Proportions feel compact with a moderate x-height and wide, open bowls; the italic angle adds forward motion without becoming overly condensed.
Best suited to short, prominent text such as headlines, posters, and brand marks where the slanted stance can add momentum. It can also work well for sports, event, or promotional graphics, and for clear, punchy signage where strong shapes and open counters help readability.
The overall tone is energetic and purposeful, with a contemporary, no-nonsense voice. Its oblique stance and firm weight read as sporty and action-oriented, while the rounded geometry keeps it approachable rather than harsh.
The design appears intended to provide a modern italic sans that feels fast and confident, combining geometric roundness with a solid, high-impact silhouette for display-forward communication.
Round letters like O and 0 are clean and evenly weighted, and the numerals are simple and highly legible at display sizes. The overall rhythm is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, with a slight emphasis on smooth curves and clear interior space.
