A heavy, oblique sans with a squared, superelliptical construction and noticeably rounded corners. The strokes are thick and fairly even, with crisp, angled terminals and frequent wedge-like cuts that reinforce forward motion. Counters tend toward rounded-rectangular shapes, and curves are tightened into squarish arcs rather than broad circles. Spacing reads compact in display settings, with a strong rightward slant and a lively rhythm created by the mix of straight segments and softened corners.
This font is well suited to high-impact headlines, sports and motorsport identities, esports or tech-forward branding, and promotional graphics where a sense of speed is desirable. It can also work for compact logo wordmarks and packaging callouts that need a bold, slanted presence.
The overall tone is fast, assertive, and sporty, with a contemporary, industrial edge. Its oblique stance and sharp cuts suggest speed and impact, while the rounded-rectangle geometry adds a tech-forward, engineered feel. The result feels suited to energetic branding rather than quiet, neutral text.
The design appears intended to deliver a streamlined, speed-inflected sans built from squared, rounded forms, combining heavy weight with oblique momentum. Its angled terminals and compact, engineered shapes aim to maximize impact and convey motion in display typography.
The numerals and caps maintain the same squared curvature and angled finishing, keeping a consistent, performance-oriented voice across the set. In longer sample lines the dense color and slant create a strong typographic “push,” making it most comfortable at larger sizes where the internal shapes can breathe.
