A heavy, oblique sans with wide proportions and a superelliptical, rounded-rectangle skeleton. Strokes are thick and clean with crisp, chamfer-like cuts at terminals and corners, producing squared counters with softened edges. Curves tend to resolve into flattened arcs rather than true circles, and many joins are engineered and angular, giving the design a machined, aerodynamic feel. The lowercase is sturdy with a steady x-height and short extenders, while the figures and capitals echo the same broad, blocky rhythm with tightly controlled apertures.
This font is best used for display work where strong presence and motion cues are desirable: sports identity systems, esports graphics, racing or athletics promotions, posters, and punchy headline typography. It can also work for logos and short packaging callouts where a bold, engineered look is needed, while longer passages are likely better kept to brief, large-size settings.
The overall tone is fast, assertive, and performance-oriented, with a distinctly modern, tech-and-sport flavor. Its slanted stance and sculpted cuts suggest motion and impact, making it feel suited to high-energy messaging rather than quiet reading.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-impact, speed-inflected sans that feels engineered and contemporary. By combining wide, heavy shapes with rounded-rectangle construction and sharp diagonal cuts, it aims to communicate power and momentum while maintaining a controlled, consistent geometric system.
Letterforms show consistent corner rounding and diagonal shears that create a cohesive “speed” motif across the set. Counters are relatively enclosed (notably in forms like e/c/s and 2/3), which boosts solidity at large sizes but can make fine details feel dense when reduced. Numerals follow the same streamlined geometry and read like integrated display forms rather than neutral text figures.
