A compact, right-slanted sans with rounded, elliptical construction and a sturdy, even stroke. Curves are smooth and full, with soft terminals and minimal modulation, giving the letters a dense, energetic silhouette. Proportions skew tall and condensed, with tight interior counters and a forward-leaning rhythm that stays consistent from caps to lowercase. Numerals follow the same rounded, compact logic, reading clearly with a strong, unified weight.
Best suited to headlines, short statements, and brand marks where a compact, high-impact voice is needed. It works well for sports and lifestyle branding, packaging callouts, event promos, and editorial display lines where the slanted rhythm can add momentum without sacrificing legibility.
The overall tone is fast and upbeat, pairing a sporty immediacy with a slightly retro, display-oriented flair. Its forward slant and chunky forms suggest motion and confidence, while the rounded shapes keep it approachable rather than aggressive.
The font appears designed to deliver a strong, modern display presence in a condensed footprint, using rounded geometry and an oblique stance to create speed and emphasis. Its consistent weight and simplified forms prioritize clarity and punch in large sizes.
The design maintains a cohesive oblique angle across the set, producing a strong directional flow in text. Round letters (like O/C) feel more like vertical ovals than perfect circles, reinforcing the condensed stance, and the punctuation and spacing in the sample text read as intentionally tight and energetic.
