A heavy, forward-leaning sans with smooth, rounded contours and tightly controlled counters. The strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, producing strong, even color and high impact. Letterforms feel compact and slightly condensed in their internal spacing, with angled terminals and simplified joins that keep shapes clean at display sizes. Curves are broad and geometric, while diagonals and bowls maintain a steady slant that creates a fast rhythm across words.
Best suited to headlines, posters, hero banners, and branding where a strong, kinetic voice is needed. It works well for sports and fitness messaging, packaging callouts, promotional graphics, and UI moments that require emphasis (buttons, badges, counters). For extended reading, it performs better in short paragraphs or punchy statements than in dense body copy.
The overall tone is energetic and assertive, with a sporty, contemporary attitude. Its pronounced slant and dense weight give it a sense of motion and urgency, reading as bold and promotional rather than quiet or editorial. The shapes feel friendly enough to be approachable, but primarily communicate strength and momentum.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a sense of speed, combining a solid geometric base with a pronounced oblique stance. It prioritizes bold clarity and a compact, modern rhythm that stays cohesive across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals in display-oriented settings.
Uppercase forms present wide, confident silhouettes with rounded corners, while lowercase keeps a sturdy, single-storey construction where applicable and retains the same emphatic slant. Numerals are similarly weighty and legible, designed to hold up in short bursts such as scores, prices, or labels. The italic angle is substantial, so spacing and line breaks benefit from a bit of breathing room to avoid a cramped texture in longer passages.
