A heavy, oblique sans with compact proportions and rounded-rect geometry in its curves. Strokes are thick and largely monolinear, with blunt terminals and tightly enclosed counters that stay open enough for display use. Curved letters (like C, O, S) feel squarish and superelliptical rather than purely circular, while diagonals and joins create sharp, energetic silhouettes. The numerals match the alphabet’s weight and slant, with simplified forms and sturdy bowls.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where strong emphasis and forward motion are desired. It works well for sports identities, energetic product packaging, promotional graphics, and bold logo wordmarks, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the tight counters and heavy stroke mass remain clear.
The overall tone is forceful and fast, suggesting motion and impact. Its slanted stance and chunky, rounded forms give it a sporty, attention-grabbing voice with a slightly retro, headline-driven character.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a streamlined, modern sans structure, combining rounded-rectangle curves with an assertive oblique stance. It prioritizes immediacy and presence over long-form readability, aiming for high visibility and a dynamic, action-oriented feel.
Spacing appears intentionally snug, amplifying a dense, punchy color in text. The italic angle and broad shoulders produce a strong forward rhythm, especially in all-caps settings and short words.
