A heavy, right-leaning sans with broad proportions and rounded-rectangle construction. Strokes are thick and steady, with softened corners and subtly squared curves that give bowls and rounds a superellipse feel. Counters are small and often horizontally pinched, creating dense internal whitespace and a tightly packed silhouette. Terminals are largely blunt, with occasional sculpted notches and angled joins that reinforce a forward-tilted, speed-oriented rhythm. Figures match the letters’ mass and width, reading bold and stable with closed, compact shapes.
Best suited for headlines, large-scale slogans, and branding where impact and motion are desired—such as sports identities, event graphics, packaging callouts, and merchandise. It performs particularly well in short, bold statements and logo-style wordmarks where the wide, slanted forms can dominate the layout.
The overall tone is fast, forceful, and high-impact, combining a sporty slant with chunky, rounded forms. It suggests motion and urgency while keeping a friendly softness through its rounded corners, landing in a retro athletic and promotional register.
The design appears intended as a high-energy display sans that emphasizes speed and mass: wide letterforms, compact counters, and rounded-rectangle geometry combine to create an assertive, attention-grabbing voice for promotional and athletic contexts.
At text sizes the tight counters and heavy weight can reduce clarity, but at display sizes the broad stance and consistent curvature produce strong, poster-like presence. The slant and wide set make it especially effective when used with generous line spacing and short phrases.
