A condensed, forward-slanted sans with angular, wedge-cut terminals and a slightly chiseled silhouette. Strokes stay mostly monoline, but corners are sharpened and often flattened, giving counters a faceted, mechanical feel. The uppercase is tall and tightly set, with compact bowls (B, P, R) and squared-off curves; the lowercase follows with similarly narrow proportions and minimal curvature. Numerals are upright in structure but share the same slanted stance and hard terminal treatment, keeping the overall texture dense and punchy.
It performs best in attention-grabbing display settings where a compact, high-energy voice is useful—sports identity, event posters, bold editorial headers, packaging callouts, and apparel graphics. The narrow build supports long words in limited space while maintaining a strong visual presence.
The font projects speed and impact, with a trackside or action-title energy. Its sharp cuts and compressed rhythm feel utilitarian and tough, leaning toward a gritty, performance-driven tone rather than friendly neutrality.
The likely intent is a condensed display sans that communicates motion and toughness through a consistent slant, sharp terminals, and dense typographic color—optimized for short, impactful phrases rather than relaxed reading.
The design relies on consistent slant and repeated wedge-like endings to create cohesion across the alphabet. Several shapes use constrained apertures and tight internal spaces, which increases darkness and reinforces the compact, headline-oriented color on the page.
