A heavy, right-slanted sans with compact proportions and rounded, superellipse-like counters. Strokes are thick and largely uniform, producing dense black shapes with tight interior space and strong silhouette-driven legibility. Curves terminate in soft, blunted ends, while diagonals and verticals carry a consistent forward lean that creates a fast, directional rhythm. Letterforms are simplified and blocky, with occasional wedge-like joins and angled cuts that add tension without introducing true contrast.
Best suited to short, bold statements where momentum and density are an asset—headlines, posters, sports or fitness identities, event promotions, and attention-grabbing packaging. It will read strongest at larger sizes where the rounded counters and compact widths can form a cohesive, punchy typographic block.
The overall tone feels energetic and forceful, with a sporty, poster-ready attitude. The rounded geometry keeps the weight from feeling harsh, giving it a slightly playful, retro flavor even at high impact sizes.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space while conveying speed and confidence. Its rounded-rectangle construction and steady stroke weight prioritize strong silhouettes and a unified texture for display typography.
Spacing appears naturally tight due to the condensed widths and large stroke mass, and the italic slant amplifies the sense of motion in headlines. The numerals match the same chunky, rounded construction, keeping the texture consistent across mixed alphanumerics.
