A heavy, oblique sans with broad proportions and a pronounced rightward slant. Strokes are thick and even, with rounded outer curves and subtly softened terminals that keep the shapes from feeling rigid. Counters are relatively tight (notably in letters like a, e, and s), creating a dense, high-impact texture in words. The uppercase is sturdy and geometric, while the lowercase stays similarly weighty with a single-storey a and g and a short, robust t; numerals follow the same rounded, compact construction for a consistent, poster-like rhythm.
Best suited to display roles such as headlines, posters, packaging callouts, and branding where impact is the priority. It also fits sports or action-oriented themes and short emphatic messaging on the web or in print. Use with generous tracking and ample size when clarity is critical.
The overall tone is bold and upbeat, combining a sporty, headline-forward attitude with approachable, rounded shapes. It feels retro-leaning and energetic—more playful and promotional than formal—designed to grab attention quickly while staying friendly rather than aggressive.
This design appears intended as an attention-getting, slanted display sans that communicates speed and confidence while staying approachable through rounded forms. Its consistent heaviness and compact counters suggest a focus on bold graphic presence rather than long-form readability.
The strong slant and compact internal spaces make the font feel fast and dynamic, especially in longer lines. At larger sizes it reads as confident and graphic; in smaller settings the tight counters and heavy weight may reduce clarity, particularly in dense text blocks.
