A heavy, forward-leaning sans with broad proportions and rounded, softly tapered joins. Strokes feel strongly weighty with noticeable (but not dramatic) thick–thin modulation, giving curves extra swelling and a slightly calligraphic rhythm. Counters are compact and apertures tend to be fairly closed, which increases density and impact. The overall texture is bold and cohesive, with smooth circular forms and sturdy diagonals that hold up well at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and short callouts where the bold slant and dense color can do the work of grabbing attention. It fits sports and fitness branding, energetic campaigns, and packaging or signage that benefits from a strong, modern voice. For longer text, it will be more effective in limited doses (subheads, pull quotes) due to its compact counters and heavy visual texture.
The tone is assertive and high-energy, with a sporty, promotional feel driven by the steep slant and chunky mass. Rounded shaping keeps it from feeling harsh, adding a friendly, approachable edge while still reading as confident and attention-seeking. It suggests motion and momentum, making it well-suited to dynamic branding contexts.
The design appears intended as a high-impact italic display sans: wide, rounded forms paired with a pronounced forward slant to convey speed and confidence. Its consistent, smooth geometry and sturdy construction aim for strong legibility at large sizes while projecting a modern, promotional character.
Lowercase shows single-storey forms (notably the “a”) and compact internal spaces that emphasize a strong silhouette. Numerals are similarly stout and rounded, matching the letterforms’ weight and forward drive. At smaller sizes, the tight counters and heavy color may reduce clarity, but at headline sizes the forms read clean and punchy.
