A heavy, right-slanted sans with rounded geometry and compact internal counters. Letterforms are built from broad, smooth strokes with gently tapered joins and subtly angled terminals that reinforce forward motion. The uppercase feels sturdy and blocky with generous curves (notably in C/G/O/Q), while the lowercase is simplified and compact, maintaining consistent weight and a tight, energetic rhythm. Numerals are similarly bold and rounded, with clear, sturdy silhouettes suited to large display sizes.
Best suited for headlines and short, attention-grabbing statements where its bold, slanted forms can read cleanly and project energy. It works well for sports and event branding, promotional graphics, packaging callouts, and bold signage where a compact, dynamic voice is needed.
The overall tone is energetic and assertive, with a sporty, upbeat character. Its strong slant and chunky forms give it a sense of speed and impact, while the rounded construction keeps it friendly and approachable. The result feels retro-leaning and promotional, like classic athletic branding or lively headlines.
Designed to deliver maximum impact with a forward-leaning, energetic stance, combining rounded sans construction with a condensed, high-density rhythm. The emphasis appears to be on readability at large sizes and on conveying motion and confidence in display settings.
Spacing appears intentionally tight at display sizes, emphasizing a dense, poster-like color on the line. The slant is uniform across cases and figures, and the curves stay smooth and consistent, producing a cohesive, high-impact texture in longer lines of text.
