A heavy, oblique sans with chunky strokes and softened corners, built from compact, slightly condensed letterforms that lean forward as a unit. Curves are generously rounded (notably in C/O/S), while many terminals are cut on a diagonal, giving the shapes a chiseled, wedge-like finish. Counters are tight and apertures are small, producing dense silhouettes and strong color at display sizes. The overall rhythm is energetic and uneven in a deliberate way, with small variations in widths and interior spacing that keep the texture lively rather than strictly mechanical.
Best used for short-to-medium display text where impact matters: headlines, posters, sports and event branding, packaging callouts, and bold social graphics. It can also work for badges, labels, and merch-style typography where dense, friendly shapes help maintain presence at a range of sizes.
The font reads as sporty and punchy, with a comic-leaning swagger that feels fast, loud, and confident. Its slanted stance and chunky forms create a sense of motion, making it well suited to attention-grabbing, upbeat messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-impact sans with an oblique, action-forward voice, combining rounded massing with angled cuts to keep the letterforms expressive and energetic in display settings.
Numerals share the same forward-leaning, cut-terminal vocabulary and feel especially sturdy and poster-ready. Round letters stay very full, while diagonals and joins (like in K, M, N, W, and X) emphasize sharp, angled intersections that heighten the energetic tone.
