A heavy, slanted sans with compact, chunky forms and rounded outer curves paired with sharp, wedge-like cut terminals. Curves are smooth and full, while many joins and stroke endings show angular notches that create a “carved” look. Counters tend to be tight and irregularly shaped, giving letters a dense, poster-friendly texture. The rhythm is lively and slightly bouncy, with wide-to-narrow alternation across glyphs and numerals that echo the same angled cutting and stout proportions.
Best suited for large sizes where its carved terminals and dense counters remain clear—headlines, posters, branding marks, and short promotional copy. It works well for sports-themed or action-oriented identities, as well as packaging or signage that benefits from a bold, dynamic voice. For longer text, it is more effective in brief bursts such as pull quotes, labels, and display lines.
The overall tone is energetic and punchy, with a sporty, retro-leaning attitude. Its slant and chiseled terminals add motion and confidence, while the rounded massing keeps it friendly rather than aggressive. It reads as attention-seeking and upbeat, suited to expressive, headline-driven design.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a sense of motion: a stout, slanted sans structure enhanced by consistent diagonal cuts that create speed and bite. Its sturdy proportions and tight counters suggest a focus on display use where immediate recognition and energy are prioritized over quiet readability.
Uppercase shapes stay simple and geometric but gain personality through consistent diagonal cuts and asymmetrical details (notably in letters like J, Q, S, and Z). Lowercase maintains a sturdy, compressed feel; the dot on i/j is sharply angled, reinforcing the directional slant. Numerals are bold and compact, with the same wedge terminals and tight bowls for strong presence in short strings.
