A heavy, forward-slanted sans with rounded bowls and broadly curved joins that keep the texture smooth despite the strong weight. Strokes are sturdy and mostly uniform, with subtle modulation visible in curves and terminals. Counters are relatively tight (notably in O, e, 8), producing a dense, high-ink silhouette, while diagonals (A, V, W, y) read crisp and energetic. Terminals are clean and unadorned, and the overall rhythm is compact with slightly varied letter widths typical of a strong italic construction.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, poster typography, sports and fitness branding, promotional graphics, and bold packaging callouts. In running text it remains readable at larger sizes, where the dense counters and steep slant can work as a deliberate, energetic voice rather than a neutral text face.
The tone is assertive and fast-moving, with a sporty, headline-driven energy. Its heavy italic slant adds urgency and motion, while the rounded forms keep it approachable rather than harsh. Overall it feels contemporary and attention-grabbing, suited to messaging that needs impact and momentum.
The design appears aimed at delivering a strong, mobile emphasis—an italic display voice that reads fast and loud. It prioritizes bold presence and a smooth, rounded construction to maintain clarity while conveying motion and urgency.
Uppercase forms stay simple and geometric, while lowercase shows more humanized, italic behavior (single-storey a, lively ear and joins) that reinforces speed and flow. Numerals are bold and rounded with clear differentiation, especially the open 2 and the looped 8.
