    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.

    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    Highly evaluated as a standard German tension rubber with proven track record among top players and versatile performance, yet many note it requires strong impact technique and is not suitable for all player types. Durability and cost-effectiveness are central to its support.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Versatility: Compatible with drives, attacks, table techniques and more
    • Durability and longevity: Lasts longer than Tenergy or Dignics
    • Grip power: Holds the ball firmly for stability
    • Impact-dependent: Best for powerful hitters; weak contact causes drops
    • Highly rated for backhand: Excellent stability and ease of use
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveA German rubber that produces curveballs and enables various techniques like drives, smashes, and counters to be executed easily. Achieves high-level spin and speed, with excellent longevity. Recommended for students and intermediate players.
    ▽ CriticalWhen trying to add strong spin with heavy impact, the ball sometimes slides. Not suitable for power hitters. Feels like a previous generation rubber with no distinctive characteristics, making it not worth the high cost.

      Yoshitake Kukitsutsumi of provisional (Experience: 2〜3 years) It's a good rubber!

      Reviews by user

      I think this is a really good rubber.
      It gets a lot of spin, so it's a perfect rubber for players who are still learning to hit topspin drives! It can be used by a wide range of players, from intermediate to advanced.

      Currently using this in red, max thickness.

      I think this is good for people who are drawn to Tenergy's performance but feel like they can't get the most out of it.

      Basically, instead of the automatic bounce and spin feel you get with Tenergy, this rubber gives more of a sense that you're generating the shot yourself.
      Because of that, it's easier to control the ball than with Tenergy.
      Serves also get plenty of spin, and since it doesn't bounce too much, you can put spin on the ball with confidence.

      I can't deny my own lack of skill, but when pushed back away from the table, it was hard for me to hit a topspin drive that dug deep into the opponent's court.
      On the other hand, when hitting close to or at mid-distance from the table, I could hit consistently, and the arc came out just the way I imagined.

      This rubber is well suited for advanced players. You can put solid spin on the ball, and counters aren't a struggle either. That said, I think it bounces a bit too much for beginners, so beginners might want to get used to tension rubbers first with something like the Fly Att series.

      I guess you could call it a speed-focused version of Tenergy 64. To start, I can't find any real flaws, though I do feel the grip on the ball is a little weak.

      Reviews by user

      I bought Fastarc G-1 at a table tennis shop the other day! When I tried it, I could put good spin on my serves, and topspin drives were easy to hit and landed on the table well!! I recommend it to people who have the basics down or who want to win more at tournaments!!

      Currently using this on both sides of a Chinese penhold blade. My first impression is that topspin drives land on the table easily. Besides that, the short game and counters are also easy to do.

      I have this in max thickness on the forehand of my Ma Long 5 (5-ply blade). Because it's max thickness, it tends to fly quite a bit. I'd say it's a perfect rubber for attacking players who use topspin drives and counters. On the backhand it's easy to block with.
