A heavy, oblique sans with compact proportions and strongly rounded bowls. Strokes are thick and even, with clean, open counters and smooth, circular curves in letters like O, C, and G. Terminals are blunt and decisively cut, and diagonals (A, V, W, Y, Z) feel stable and tightly drawn. The lowercase follows a single‑storey construction for a and g, with broad shoulders and a generally upright, solid rhythm despite the consistent slant.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, and branding—especially in sports, fitness, and other energetic contexts. It can also work for bold labels, packaging callouts, and large-format signage where a compact, slanted sans helps convey motion and urgency.
The overall tone is assertive and sporty, with a forward-leaning momentum that reads as active and contemporary. Its weight and compactness create a loud, no-nonsense voice suited to attention-grabbing messaging rather than subtlety.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, modern italicized voice with geometric roundness and high visual density. Its consistent slant and simplified, sturdy shapes prioritize immediate impact and a dynamic texture in display settings.
Figures are bold and rounded, with simplified forms that favor quick recognition at larger sizes. The oblique angle is consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, giving lines of text a cohesive, fast-moving texture.
