A heavy, forward-leaning sans with broad proportions and stout, low-contrast strokes. Letterforms are built from simplified geometric curves and thick straights, with a consistent rightward shear that creates an oblique, kinetic silhouette. Counters are compact and openings are relatively tight, while corners read as slightly rounded or softened rather than sharp. The overall rhythm is punchy and dense, with sturdy numerals and a uniform, poster-ready color on the page.
Well suited to headlines, posters, and large-scale messaging where bold, slanted forms can carry urgency and momentum. It also fits sports branding, promotional graphics, packaging callouts, and social/app promo typography that benefits from a compact, high-impact word shape.
The tone is energetic and assertive, with a sporty, retro-leaning voice that feels built for impact. Its strong slant and chunky shapes suggest speed and motion, while the rounded geometry keeps it approachable and playful rather than severe.
The design appears intended as an impact-driven display sans that combines geometric simplicity with a pronounced slant to communicate motion. It prioritizes strong silhouette and dense typographic color for attention-grabbing titles and branding moments.
At text sizes the tight counters and heavy joins can visually fill in, so it reads best with generous tracking or in short bursts. The oblique angle is prominent enough to function as a stylistic signal, helping headlines feel active even in static layouts.
