A strongly slanted, sans-leaning italic with a brush-like construction and noticeable stroke modulation. Forms are built from quick, tapered strokes with pointed terminals and occasional wedge-like joins, giving letters a sliced, aerodynamic look. Curves stay fairly open and elliptical, while diagonals dominate the rhythm; counters are compact and the lowercase shows a low, short x-height with relatively long extenders. Width is uneven by design, with some glyphs stretched and others tightened, creating a lively, forward-leaning texture in words.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, posters, sports or motorsport-inspired branding, and logo wordmarks where the slanted motion and brushy modulation can be a feature. It can work for short bursts of copy on packaging or promotional graphics, but the expressive rhythm and compact counters make it less ideal for long, small-size reading.
The font conveys speed and momentum, with a bold, confident attitude that feels informal and action-oriented. Its sharp, sweeping strokes suggest hand-drawn motion—more like a brisk marker or brush script interpreted as a connected-leaning italic than a calm text face. Overall it reads expressive and energetic, with a lightly retro display flavor.
The design appears intended to deliver a fast, kinetic italic voice with hand-drawn energy, translating brush-script movement into a stylized sans-like set of letterforms. Its uneven widths and tapered terminals prioritize impact and personality, aiming for a sense of speed and bold gesture in display typography.
Capitals are especially angular and stylized, leaning on long diagonals and tapered entries/exits, while the numerals echo the same slashed, fast-stroke logic. In sample text, word shapes are distinctive but spacing feels intentionally irregular, emphasizing character and motion over quiet uniformity; it benefits from generous size and breathing room.
