A heavy, right-slanted display sans with chunky, sculpted letterforms and clear stroke modulation. The shapes feel cut from solid black with tight internal counters, producing strong black density and compact apertures at smaller sizes. Curves are rounded but often finish in sharp, chiseled terminals, and many letters show wedge-like joins and angled cuts that enhance the sense of motion. Overall rhythm is energetic and uneven in an intentional way, with letter widths varying noticeably across the alphabet while maintaining consistent slant and weight.
Best suited to short, impactful settings such as headlines, posters, event promotions, sports-related graphics, and bold logo lockups. It also works well for packaging or merch where a fast, energetic tone is desired and the letterforms can be given room to breathe.
The font conveys speed and impact, with a bold, assertive tone reminiscent of vintage sports branding and high-energy headlines. Its italicized posture and hard-cut details give it a forward-driving, slightly aggressive personality that reads as confident and attention-seeking.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch with a sense of speed: a slanted, high-impact sans that blends rounded structure with angular, carved terminals. Its deliberate stroke contrast and variable widths suggest a display-focused approach aimed at distinctive, brandable wordmarks and attention-grabbing titles.
Numbers are similarly weighty and stylized, with strong diagonals and tight bowls that keep the set cohesive. The sample text shows that the thick strokes and compact counters can cause words to mass into dense blocks, reinforcing a poster-like, headline-first character rather than a text face.
