This typeface is a heavy, slanted sans with broad, rounded forms and strongly filled-in counters. Strokes are consistently thick with subtly tapered joins and an overall forward-leaning rhythm that creates motion. Curves are built from smooth, elliptical geometry (notably in O/C/G and the bowls of b/d/p/q), while diagonals (A/V/W/X/Y) are blunt and sturdy. The lowercase shows a tall, prominent x-height with short extenders, and details like the single-storey a and g and the dot on i/j read as clean, circular elements.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, brand marks, and promotional messaging where the slanted weight can convey momentum. It can also work well on packaging and in sports- or entertainment-adjacent design systems that need bold, friendly emphasis.
The overall tone is assertive and energetic, with a sporty, modern feel. Its exaggerated weight and italic slant make it feel promotional and attention-seeking, while the rounded construction keeps it approachable rather than aggressive. The result is a bold, playful voice suited to dynamic messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact with a sense of speed and modernity. By combining rounded, geometric construction with a strong slant and dense weight, it aims to stay legible at large sizes while projecting an energetic, contemporary character.
Numerals are thick and compact with rounded corners and strong interior shapes, designed to hold up at display sizes. The forms maintain a consistent slant across letters and figures, producing a cohesive, fast-moving texture in lines of text.
