A heavy, right-slanted sans with broad proportions and thick, even strokes. Curves are generously rounded and terminals are clean and blunt, producing compact internal counters in letters like a, e, and s. The overall rhythm is forward-leaning and sturdy, with simplified, high-impact shapes and minimal detailing that keeps forms bold and readable at large sizes.
Best suited for headlines and short display copy where strong presence and fast recognition matter—such as posters, promotional graphics, sports-themed branding, packaging callouts, and punchy social media typography. It can work for brief subheads or labels, but its dense weight and tight counters are most effective when given ample size and spacing.
The font feels energetic and assertive, with a sporty, action-oriented tone created by the pronounced slant and dense black mass. Its rounded construction keeps the mood approachable rather than aggressive, making it feel contemporary and playful while still emphatic.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact with a streamlined, modern sans structure, combining a strong forward slant with rounded geometry for a dynamic yet friendly look.
Uppercase forms read as stable and blocky, while lowercase letters maintain a single-storey, simplified feel that reinforces the font’s informal, display-forward character. Numerals match the same weight and slant, with rounded bowls and strong silhouettes that hold up well in short strings.
