A heavy, forward-leaning sans with compact, rounded-rectangle construction and softly squared counters. Strokes are broadly uniform and dense, with tight interior spaces that create a strong, poster-like silhouette. Terminals are blunt and clean, curves are controlled rather than calligraphic, and overall proportions feel tall and upright despite the oblique slant. Numerals and capitals carry a compressed, athletic rhythm with sturdy bowls and minimal detailing.
Best suited to headlines, display typography, and branding where a bold, dynamic voice is needed—especially in sports, fitness, automotive, and event promotion. It can also work for punchy packaging callouts and logo wordmarks, while longer text benefits from larger sizes and looser spacing to maintain clarity.
The tone is fast, forceful, and contemporary, projecting speed and confidence. Its italic slant and thick, compact shapes give it a competitive, high-impact feel associated with sports and action-forward messaging.
Likely drawn to deliver maximum impact with a streamlined, athletic slant—combining sturdy, low-detail shapes with rounded corners to keep the forms modern and approachable while still feeling aggressive and fast.
The design favors solid mass and simplified geometry over openness, so texture becomes dark quickly in paragraphs. It reads best when allowed generous tracking and line spacing, and it holds up well in short bursts where its angular, rounded structure can stay crisp.
