A heavy, forward-slanted sans with chunky superelliptical curves and squared-off joins. The letterforms feel built from rounded rectangles: bowls are broad and compact, corners are softened, and terminals are blunt with minimal taper. Counters are relatively tight for the weight, creating a dense, high-ink texture, while the overall rhythm remains steady and geometric. Figures and capitals keep the same robust, engineered construction, with clear diagonals and wide, stable silhouettes.
Well suited to headlines, poster copy, and short, punchy messaging where maximum presence is needed. It can work effectively in sports and fitness branding, event graphics, packaging callouts, and logo wordmarks that benefit from a fast, aggressive slant and dense color.
The tone is fast and forceful, leaning into a sporty, action-oriented voice. Its slant and dense blackness give it a sense of motion and pressure, making words feel emphatic and competitive rather than delicate or neutral.
The font appears designed to deliver immediate impact with a strong, modern silhouette and a built-in sense of motion. Its rounded-rectilinear construction suggests an intention to feel technical and contemporary while remaining bold and highly legible in display settings.
The design reads best at larger sizes where the compact apertures and short internal spaces stay clear. The rounded-rectangle geometry gives it a contemporary, industrial feel that stays consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
