A slanted, heavy sans with compact proportions and a forward-leaning stance. Strokes show noticeable thick–thin modulation for an italicized sans, with smooth curves and subtly squared, sharpened joins that keep the texture crisp. Counters are relatively tight and apertures tend toward closed, giving the face a dense, high-impact color. Terminals are generally angled and clean, and diagonals (notably in A, K, V, W, X, Y) carry much of the rhythm, producing a fast, directional silhouette.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as sports identities, event graphics, headlines, and punchy UI headings where the slant can convey momentum. It can also work for packaging or promotional copy when used with generous spacing and hierarchy, while extended paragraphs may require careful leading and tracking to avoid a dark, compressed texture.
The overall tone is energetic and driven, with a sporty, performance-oriented feel. Its strong slant and dense weight suggest speed and urgency, while the clean sans construction keeps it contemporary and pragmatic. The result reads as confident and attention-seeking without becoming decorative.
The design appears aimed at delivering a sense of speed and power through a pronounced oblique angle, dense stroke weight, and controlled contrast. It prioritizes assertive presence and directional rhythm for display-led typography while retaining a clean, utilitarian sans structure.
Uppercase forms stay sturdy and compact, while lowercase shows a single-storey a and g and an italic-style f that extends with a pronounced curve, reinforcing the motion. Numerals are similarly slanted and weighty, with rounded shapes that remain legible at display sizes but can appear tightly packed in longer text due to the narrow counters and strong emphasis.
