A heavy, oblique sans with broad proportions and rounded construction. Letterforms lean forward with a smooth, aerodynamic rhythm, combining large curved bowls with sharply cut, slanted terminals. Counters are relatively compact in the lowercase, while capitals stay open and sturdy, giving the overall texture a dense, high-impact color. Numerals follow the same forward-leaning, rounded logic, with soft curves and diagonal cuts that keep the set visually consistent.
Best suited to short, prominent text where impact and motion are desirable—headlines, posters, event graphics, sports and automotive-style branding, packaging callouts, and attention-grabbing signage. The strong oblique stance and dense color help it hold up well in large-scale applications and high-contrast layouts.
The font reads fast and energetic, with a confident, performance-minded tone. Its forward slant and chunky shapes evoke motion and momentum, giving it a sporty, headline-driven presence with a mild retro flavor.
The design appears intended to deliver an immediate, high-energy display voice: a forward-leaning, rounded sans that emphasizes speed, power, and punchy legibility in titles and branding.
Stroke endings frequently resolve in diagonal, wedge-like cuts that reinforce the sense of speed. Curves are smooth and continuous rather than geometric-hard, and the overall spacing feels tuned for bold display rather than long passages at small sizes.
