This typeface is a condensed, strongly slanted sans with heavy strokes and compact, vertical proportions. Curves and counters are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, giving bowls and apertures a smooth, squared-off feel rather than circular shapes. Terminals are mostly blunt and clean, with minimal modulation, producing a solid, uniform texture. The lowercase has a tall x-height and short extenders, and the overall rhythm feels tightly packed and forward-leaning, supporting dense headline setting.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as headlines, poster copy, sports and event branding, packaging callouts, and large-format signage where the compact width helps fit more characters per line. It can also work for bold subheads, but its density and slant make it less ideal for long-form reading at small sizes.
The overall tone is assertive and fast, with a promotional, sporty edge. Its aggressive slant and compact heft read as dynamic and attention-grabbing, suggesting urgency and momentum rather than neutrality or softness.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space while maintaining a cohesive, rounded-rectangle skeleton. Its heavy weight and forward slant prioritize immediacy and visibility, targeting energetic display typography over quiet text use.
Round characters like O, Q, and 0 keep a squared, superelliptical silhouette, while diagonals (A, V, W, X) and the italic angle add a strong directional flow across lines. Numerals are similarly compact and bold, designed to hold their own in display contexts.
