A heavy, slanted sans with broad proportions and rounded, compact counters. Strokes are consistently thick with smooth curvature and minimal modulation, giving the forms a solid, graphic presence. Terminals are generally blunt and slightly softened, and the letterforms lean forward with a steady, even rhythm. Lowercase shapes are large relative to capitals, with simple, sturdy construction and tight-looking apertures that emphasize mass and cohesion in text.
This font is well suited to headlines, short statements, and branding where a strong, kinetic silhouette is desirable. It can work effectively on posters, packaging, and sports-leaning identities, and it holds up best at medium-to-large sizes where the compact apertures remain clear.
The overall tone is energetic and upbeat, with a bold, forward-leaning voice that feels sporty and assertive without becoming harsh. Rounded forms keep it approachable and fun, making it read as friendly and contemporary rather than industrial.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a fast, forward-leaning stance, combining bold massing with rounded geometry to stay approachable. It prioritizes strong presence and a cohesive, energetic texture in display settings.
In running text the dense stroke weight and enclosed counters create strong texture and high impact, while the slant adds momentum. Numerals and capitals match the same compact, rounded construction for a consistent, headline-driven look.
