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.

TIBHAR Super fast

It was way faster than I expected. The arc is neither high nor low — kind of middling. I'd say it's on the lower side for a modern spin-oriented tension rubber these days. So if you like a harder rubber, I'd recommend putting it on your backhand.
Drives against backspin: Because it's fast, speed drives go in more reliably than loop drives.
Topspin rallies: A single shot packs a lot of power, though it can be a bit tricky to control.
Hitting flat: Not very affected by incoming spin, and fast.
Stop: If you relax your grip a little and hit right after the bounce, the ball stays low and short.
Push: Very fast, and opponents seemed to struggle with it. Send it deep to a good spot and it can go untouched.
Flick: Nicely unaffected by incoming spin, easy to use.
Chiquita: It grips well and is fast, so it's stable whether you're going for spin or speed.
Block/Counter: Opinions seem to be split on this. I personally like that it's not very affected by incoming spin.
It is technically a spin-oriented tension rubber, but the ball comes off it quickly.
If you're confident with your backhand, I think you'll be satisfied.
It also suits the forehand of female players well.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

At first glance, the sheet looks like the tacky, moist type. Even just hitting on the forehand, I felt the ball sink into the sponge nicely. Drives feel great because the rubber grips firmly without slipping. Overall the rubber feels solid and firm — kind of similar to Tibhar's Evolution MX-P. Because it grips so well, it produces a nice arc and is very consistent. It also puts good spin on the ball even when it flies in a flatter line. Both serves and receives bite really well. For backhand use, it'll work once you can swing it properly. This is perfect for anyone looking for something similar to Tenergy but who can't afford it, or for students.

With drives it grips well and produces good shots. Smashes come out fast too. Blocking, though, takes a bit more skill.

I'm using Tenergy 05 on my forehand right now. Before that, I had Fastarc G-1 on there. They're both spin rubbers, but Tenergy 05 feels like it has more spin and distance. The bounce is more controlled than Tenergy 05, so I'd say Fastarc G-1 has the edge in control. Speed and power feel about the same between the two. If you like a harder sheet, Tenergy 05 is the way to go.

What it does best is forehand topspin drives. The sheet is on the harder side, so drives close to the table and at mid-distance are stable. Even if you step back, a full swing gives you a powerful drive with lots of spin and power. Pushes and serves bite well too.

It's a bit hard, so I found the short game easy to play.
Blocking is also really easy with it.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

The spin is amazing.
The arc goes up nicely too.
I was confused at first, but once I started closing my racket angle over the ball I was hitting good shots.
The only issue I'd point out is that it chipped when I knocked the racket against something.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard
