A heavy, oblique sans with rounded-rectangle construction and broadly superelliptical curves. The strokes are thick and clean with smooth joins and minimal modulation, producing dense, high-impact silhouettes. Counters are relatively tight, and terminals tend to look clipped or subtly angled, reinforcing a forward-leaning, condensed feel even at normal width. Round letters (O, C, G, e) read as squarish rounds, while diagonals (A, V, W, X, Y) are sturdy and geometric; numerals match the same chunky, softened geometry.
Best suited to display typography where maximum impact is desired—headlines, posters, social graphics, and bold brand statements. It also fits sports and fitness identities, event promotions, and packaging where a compact, energetic word shape helps messages land quickly.
The overall tone is assertive and athletic, with a sense of speed from the consistent slant and sharp, decisive rhythm. Its rounded corners keep it approachable rather than aggressive, balancing impact with a friendly, contemporary feel.
The design appears intended to deliver a fast, high-energy voice through a strong oblique stance and rounded-rectilinear letterforms, optimizing for dense, attention-grabbing display setting while keeping a modern, approachable geometry.
Spacing appears designed for headline density, with compact sidebearings and strong color across words. The lowercase maintains a tall, prominent presence against the capitals, helping mixed-case settings stay bold and legible at display sizes.
