A heavy, oblique sans with broad proportions and a strong rightward slant. Strokes are thick and mostly monolinear with gently rounded joins and corners that keep the shapes from feeling sharp. Counters are relatively tight, giving the letters a dense, compact interior rhythm, while overall spacing remains open enough for large-scale readability. The lowercase shows a large x-height and simplified, sturdy forms (single-storey a, compact e), and the numerals follow the same wide, weighty construction with smooth curves and flattened terminals.
Best suited to headlines and short statements where impact matters—posters, sports and fitness branding, product packaging, and bold UI headers. It performs especially well in large sizes where the oblique angle and dense shapes can project energy and presence.
The overall tone is fast and forceful, with a forward-leaning stance that suggests motion and urgency. Its density and breadth read as confident and attention-grabbing, lending a competitive, sporty attitude without becoming decorative.
This design appears intended as an emphatic, motion-oriented sans for display typography, combining broad proportions with a consistent oblique structure to maximize visual momentum and brand punch.
Round letters (O, Q, C) feel slightly squared by the weight and curvature, and diagonals (N, V, W, X, Z) are prominent, reinforcing a dynamic texture. The heavier mass and tight apertures may reduce clarity at small sizes, but the forms stay cohesive and consistent in display settings.
