A slanted, heavy sans with squared-off curves and superelliptical bowls that read as rounded rectangles rather than circles. Strokes are broadly uniform, with blunt terminals and frequent chamfered or angled cuts that sharpen joins and corners. Counters are compact and apertures tend toward narrow openings, giving the forms a tight, forward-leaning rhythm. Uppercase shapes are wide-shouldered and blocky (notably in C/G/O/Q), while the lowercase follows with compact, sturdy constructions and minimal detailing; numerals match the same boxy-round geometry and emphatic weight.
It performs best in attention-grabbing roles such as sports and performance branding, event graphics, team or product marks, and punchy headlines. The strong slant and compact counters also suit short bursts of text on posters, packaging, and UI labels where a dynamic, technical voice is desired.
The overall tone is fast and purposeful, with an assertive, sporty energy and a distinctly engineered feel. Its forward slant and clipped shapes suggest motion and immediacy, making it read as confident and performance-oriented rather than conversational.
The design appears intended to combine a high-impact, forward-leaning stance with rounded-rect geometry for a contemporary, performance-driven aesthetic. Its consistent, blunt stroke treatment and controlled apertures prioritize a streamlined silhouette that stays legible at large sizes and holds up in bold graphic compositions.
Round letters consistently favor squircle-like geometry, and many characters show deliberate, angled incisions (for example at joints and in interior corners) that reinforce a mechanical, streamlined look. The heavy weight and tight internal spaces push it toward display use where impact matters more than airy readability.
