A heavy, slanted sans with broad proportions and a compact internal space. Curves are smooth and rounded, while joins and terminals often resolve into blunt, slightly squared-off endings that reinforce a solid, engineered feel. The uppercase has a strong, uniform silhouette, and the lowercase follows with sturdy bowls and short, efficient extenders; counters stay relatively tight, keeping the texture dense and impactful. Figures are stout and simplified, matching the letterforms’ bold, forward-leaning rhythm.
Best suited for large-scale display work where impact and motion are desirable: headlines, posters, sports or esports identities, promotional graphics, and bold packaging callouts. It can work for short bursts of text (taglines, captions, UI hero statements) when ample size and spacing are available, but its dense color and tight counters make it less ideal for long-form reading.
The overall tone is fast, forceful, and contemporary, with a distinctly athletic, headline-driven energy. Its slant and mass communicate momentum and confidence, making text feel louder and more urgent than neutral grotesks.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum presence with a streamlined, forward-leaning stance—prioritizing strong silhouettes, quick recognition, and a dynamic, speed-associated attitude for branding and display typography.
The sample text shows a dark, continuous typographic color and strong word shapes at larger sizes, with spacing that reads intentionally tight for maximum impact. Round letters maintain a consistent curvature, while diagonal strokes and angled terminals add a subtle “racing” character without introducing decorative flourishes.
