A heavy, oblique sans with sculpted curves and subtle stroke modulation that reads as carved rather than purely geometric. Forms are wide-shouldered and compact, with softened corners, small ink-trap-like notches, and occasional teardrop terminals that add snap to joins and endpoints. Counters are tight but open enough for display sizes, and the overall rhythm is dynamic, with lively diagonals and a slightly compressed, forward-leaning stance. Numerals and capitals share a consistent, athletic heft, while lowercase maintains sturdy bowls and short, decisive terminals for a bold texture in text.
Best suited to headlines, titles, posters, and branding where a strong, fast impression is desired. It can work well for sports and event graphics, product packaging, and punchy editorial callouts, especially when set with ample tracking or generous leading to keep counters clear.
The font conveys speed and impact, mixing a vintage sign-painting/sports headline feel with a modern, engineered solidity. Its forward slant and chunky silhouettes give it an energetic, competitive tone that feels confident and promotional rather than neutral or bookish.
Likely drawn to deliver a high-impact italic display voice with a sporty, retro-leaning attitude. The shaped terminals and subtle modulation suggest an intention to add personality and motion while keeping the overall construction clean and sans-led for contemporary branding needs.
The design’s character comes from its shaped terminals and inner cut-ins, which create a distinctive texture especially in letters like S, G, a, and s. The oblique angle is consistent and the spacing appears tuned for strong word-shapes, though the dense weight suggests it will be most comfortable above small text sizes.
