A condensed, right-slanted sans with compact proportions and heavy, even stroke weight. Curves are built from rounded, superellipse-like forms, giving bowls and counters a smooth, slightly squarish roundness rather than true circles. Terminals are clean and mostly sheared by the slant, with minimal detailing and no ornamental breaks, producing a straightforward, high-impact texture. Spacing is tight and the narrow letterforms stack into dense vertical rhythm, while rounded joins keep the overall color from feeling jagged.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and promotional graphics where tight width and strong emphasis help text cut through at a distance. It also fits sports branding, energetic event materials, and packaging callouts that benefit from a condensed, forward-leaning voice. For longer reading, it works more comfortably at larger sizes where the dense rhythm has room to breathe.
The overall tone is fast, emphatic, and performance-oriented, with a sporty, poster-like presence. The combination of strong weight, steep slant, and compact width reads as urgent and kinetic, reminiscent of retro headline lettering used for action, speed, or competitive contexts.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space while preserving a smooth, modern feel through rounded rectangular curves. The pronounced slant and compact construction suggest a deliberate emphasis on motion and immediacy for display-driven typography.
The uppercase has a tall, compressed stance that holds together well in all-caps, while the lowercase maintains a practical, compact silhouette. Numerals match the same condensed, slanted construction and rounded geometry, keeping mixed alphanumeric strings visually consistent.
