A heavy, right-slanted sans with compact proportions and broad, rounded-rectangle counters that give many letters a superelliptical, “padded” feel. Strokes are uniformly thick with minimal modulation, and terminals are mostly blunt or softly rounded, producing a dense, high-impact texture in text. Curves (C, G, O, S, 8, 9) read as squarish rounds rather than true circles, while diagonals (A, K, V, W, X) are sturdy and clean with tight interior joins. Numerals are similarly robust, with simplified shapes and small apertures that favor solidity over delicacy.
Best suited to headlines, short statements, and large-format typography where its dense weight and slanted stance can carry impact. It works well for sports and fitness branding, promotional posters, packaging callouts, and other applications that benefit from bold emphasis and a sense of motion.
The overall tone is assertive and kinetic, with a forward lean that suggests speed, momentum, and emphasis. Its chunky geometry and tight counters project confidence and toughness, making it feel at home in energetic, no-nonsense messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence with a streamlined, geometric sans construction—combining superelliptical rounding with a consistent slant to create a fast, forceful voice for display use.
The letterforms prioritize mass and continuity, so small openings and compact counters can darken quickly in longer passages. The italic angle is consistent and the rhythm is steady, giving headings a cohesive, driven look.
