Most players are looking for that rubber that fits them just right. Nittaku has introduced the Fastarc series with a variety to choose from. The Fastarc G-1 has the most power of the series. It's a very direct and to the point rubber. All offensive strokes from fast drives at the table to long distance counterlooping are executed with high precision. The hardest and fastest of all the Fastarcs.

I'm using this on my forehand.
Rozena is on my backhand. I was never all that good at driving, and I couldn't hit consistently. But after switching to the G1 and hitting with the ball sinking into the sponge, my forehand drives started going in at a level that's almost funny.
And with such a nice arc too! So topspin rallies are easy as well. Personally, I feel like letting the ball sink in also makes chiquita easier, though for flicking-type techniques — maybe partly because my blade has a lively bounce — flicks often went long. Still, it was easy to control and a good rubber overall. I'd recommend it to anyone who wants to get more arc on their drives.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

I think this is the best rubber out there for value for money.
If you're good at brushing the ball, I think you can get spin on par with Tenergy.
That said, the sheet is hard, so the short game was a bit tough for me.It also lasts a long time, so definitely give it a try at least once.

What I noticed right after using it was how much spin and stability it had. First, hitting normally on the forehand, it doesn't feel very hard, and I think drives are good once you let the ball sink into the sponge — whether that's a speed drive or a loop drive. The short game, like pushes and flicks, was also easy. On the backhand, hitting normally, it feels harder than the forehand, but loop drives, pushes, and chiquita are all easy too, and it's stable. On top of that it gets good spin, so I don't think there are many downsides. If I had to mention something, it's a bit heavy, and while the forehand is great, the backhand might feel a little hard. Everyone, please give this one a try!!! Now it's your turn. Give it a try.

I'd been using tacky rubber for a long time and decided to switch to a tension rubber, so I bought both the G-1 and Rozena, but I felt the G-1 has trouble generating speed, and while it does put spin on the ball, both its speed and spin fell short of Rozena's. That said, the arc was higher than I expected, which I think gives it an advantage in topspin rallies. The control was pretty good!

I used to think it was too hard and didn't use it. A year has passed since then, and using it now — maybe my skill has gone up — it's really easy to use. It feels a little hard, but not rock hard. I've been using it on and off for about a year now, but honestly I haven't even put a month's worth of practice into it, so the rubber is still in great shape
Does it match well with the blade?
Push (backhand) doesn't slip at all, and stop (forehand) is also really easy to do. Chiquita is a bit tricky until you get used to it, but the spin you get when you pull it off is nasty. Up until now my chiquita style was the slow, ball-sinking-into-the-sponge type, but with this one I've started thinking of it as more of a speed chiquita, in my own way. More of a brushing feel? I only learned chiquita recently, and compared to when I was using Rozena, this is quite a bit harder, so... it's a bit tough getting the technique down..
But this is a fun rubber ^^All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

I put this on my forehand.
It flies with a nice arc, so loop drives
land a little shallow, but you can hit
fast shots while keeping the speed stable.
When I tried it on my backhand instead,
I found pushes and blocks
were easy to do.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft
