A heavy, oblique sans with extended proportions and a squarish, superelliptical skeleton. Strokes are monoline and dense, with rounded-rectangle counters and softly radiused corners that keep the mass from feeling sharp. Terminals are largely sheared to match the slant, creating a forward-leaning, aerodynamic rhythm; several letters show small horizontal cuts or notches that add a mechanical, speed-stripe flavor. Numerals follow the same wide, compact-curve logic with stable, blocky silhouettes optimized for impact at display sizes.
Best suited to attention-grabbing display work such as sports identities, racing or fitness graphics, gaming/UI title treatments, and tech-forward branding. It also works well for posters, packaging callouts, and short, bold headlines where its slant and geometric rounding can carry the visual voice.
The overall tone is fast, contemporary, and high-energy, blending a tech-industrial feel with sporty motion. Its slanted stance and streamlined detailing read as confident and performance-driven rather than neutral or bookish.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact with a forward-moving posture and modern, rounded-rect geometry. Its streamlined cuts and oblique construction suggest an intention to evoke speed and technology while remaining clean and highly legible at larger sizes.
The design maintains consistent curvature across bowls (notably in O/Q/e) while keeping apertures tight and forms compact, which strengthens headline presence. The distinctive sheared terminals and occasional underlines/cuts become prominent personality cues in longer lines of text, reinforcing the sense of motion.
