A heavy, forward-slanted sans with wide proportions and rounded-rectangle construction. Curves resolve into soft, superelliptical corners, while straight segments stay clean and planar, creating a boxy-but-smooth silhouette. Strokes are generally uniform, with subtle tapering at terminals and occasional notch-like cut-ins that add a mechanical rhythm. Counters are compact and rounded, spacing is tight but consistent, and the overall texture reads as a dense, continuous band well-suited to large sizes.
Best used for attention-grabbing display settings such as headlines, posters, sports or esports identities, gaming UI titles, and energetic packaging. It can also work for short, bold calls-to-action or section headers where a strong directional feel is desirable; for longer text, its density and compact counters are more likely to dominate the page.
The tone is fast and performance-driven, evoking motorsport graphics, sports branding, and sci‑fi interface lettering. Its slanted stance and compact counters feel urgent and energetic, while the rounded geometry keeps it friendly rather than aggressive. The result is a confident, high-impact voice with a contemporary, engineered flavor.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a streamlined, speed-oriented aesthetic. By combining rounded-rectangle forms with consistent slant and tight, efficient counters, it aims to look modern, engineered, and dynamic in large-scale branding and display typography.
Distinctive numerals and capitals emphasize motion through angled joins and extended horizontals, and several glyphs feature sporty baseline/terminal extensions that act like built-in speed lines. The italic slant is consistent across letters and figures, helping headlines feel cohesive and directional.
