A heavy, forward-leaning sans with rounded-rectangle geometry and softened corners. The shapes are broadly proportioned with compact internal counters and a tightly packed, muscular silhouette. Strokes show noticeable thick–thin modulation for an italic sans, with angled terminals and subtle pinch points that read like ink-trap behavior at joins and apertures. Curves (C, O, S) are squarish-round rather than purely circular, and diagonals (V, W, X, Y) are steep and energetic, reinforcing a fast slant and dense rhythm.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as sports branding, team or event graphics, punchy headlines, and poster typography. The weight and slant make it effective for logos, labels, and packaging where a fast, assertive voice is needed; it is less optimized for long reading at small sizes due to its dense counters and strong emphasis.
The overall tone is energetic and competitive, with a bold, “in-motion” attitude suited to attention-grabbing statements. Its rounded construction keeps it approachable despite the strong weight, giving it a sporty, retro-leaning flavor rather than a strictly technical one.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a sense of speed, combining rounded superellipse forms with an emphatic oblique stance. Its tight apertures and angled terminals suggest a display-first approach aimed at energetic branding and bold promotional typography.
Uppercase forms feel compact and logo-like, while lowercase maintains a sturdy, slightly compressed presence with tight apertures (notably in a, e, s). Numerals match the same slanted, chunky construction; curved figures (2, 3, 5) emphasize smooth, aerodynamic sweeps, and 8/9 are notably full and dense.
