A heavy, oblique sans with broad proportions and smooth, rounded outer curves paired with flat, horizontal terminals. The stroke construction is monolinear and dense, producing large counters and strong silhouettes that hold up well at display sizes. Curves (C, G, O, S) feel circular and steady, while diagonals (A, K, V, W, X, Y) are thick and clean, giving the face a consistent forward-leaning rhythm. Lowercase forms are simple and sturdy with a single-storey a and g, and numerals are similarly robust and open.
Best suited for headlines, poster typography, and brand marks that need immediate impact. It also fits packaging, event graphics, and sports or fitness-oriented communication where a strong, energetic voice is desired. For longer text, it reads most comfortably in short bursts such as pull quotes, labels, or UI callouts.
The overall tone is bold and forward-driving, with a sporty, promotional energy. Its slant and massing convey motion and confidence, while the rounded geometry keeps it friendly rather than severe.
The design appears intended as a high-impact, modern sans for display use, combining a pronounced oblique stance with rounded, uncomplicated shapes to balance strength and approachability.
Spacing appears generous for a display cut, helping the dense letterforms remain legible in headlines. The oblique angle is consistent across both cases and figures, reinforcing a cohesive, “in-motion” texture in running lines.
