A heavy, slanted sans with compact, rounded-rectangle construction and strongly chamfered corners. Letterforms are built from broad strokes with minimal contrast, producing a dense, graphic silhouette and tight interior counters. Terminals tend to cut on angles rather than end bluntly, and curves read as squarish superellipses, especially in O/C/G and the bowls of B/P/R. Spacing is relatively tight and the forms are designed to lock together cleanly in bold settings, keeping counters open enough to remain recognizable at display sizes.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as sports branding, event posters, punchy headlines, and logo wordmarks where a sense of speed is desired. It can also work on packaging or apparel graphics that benefit from a bold, engineered look, but will feel heavy and cramped for long-form reading.
The overall tone is fast, loud, and impact-driven, with a motorsport/athletics feel and a contemporary, engineered edge. The strong slant and chunky geometry create a sense of motion and urgency, while the rounded-square curves keep it friendly rather than aggressive.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact with a cohesive, motion-forward slant and rounded-rectilinear geometry, aiming for a contemporary display voice that reads clearly at large sizes and in bold applications.
Uppercase and lowercase share the same muscular, compact skeleton, and numerals follow the same blocky logic with squared curves and angled cuts for clarity. The design prioritizes silhouette readability over delicate detail, making it most effective where strong shapes matter more than fine typographic nuance.
