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.

The ability to overpower the opponent's spin on drives is extremely high.
Topspin rallies, hitting against backspin, and hitting against chops are all really easy — the ball lifts in the direction of your swing and then dips down sharply, so it lands solidly on the table. The ball also has strong extension after the bounce, and I could hit balls with more weight and spin than I expected from myself.
Blocks and counters are also stable and never lose out to the opponent's ball.
It's a fairly hard rubber, so it doesn't really "hold" the ball and the ball leaves quickly, but the moment of contact felt like it forcibly overpowers the opponent's spin.
Serves and receives tend to float a bit until you get used to it.
I think it's a wonderful rubber where, if you can nail the impact on any technique, you can hit a ball stronger than you'd imagine.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

When it comes to topspin drives, I feel like this rubber makes control incredibly easy. It's an easy rubber to use on both forehand and backhand.
It's not just drives either — smashes, pushes, flicks, pretty much everything is easy to do with it.
The feel on contact is great too, you get a solid sense of the hit coming through, so it feels really good to play with.
For serves, I think it's easy to create a clear difference between spinny and non-spinny serves.Personally I don't feel like the rubber itself has that much bounce on its own, so I'd recommend pairing it with a bouncier blade, like one with special composite materials.
If you're torn on which rubber to pick, I think it's worth just trying this one out.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

This is an incredibly strong rubber for topspin rallies
However, it's a bit too hard, so it's not suited for players who want to take the initiative with pushes or who want to win points by aiming their pushes at specific spots
Serves bite well and it's easy to follow up with consecutive attacks!
If you put this rubber on your forehand, I'd recommend using a softer rubber on your backhand
For example, V>01 Limber or the Tenergy FX seriesAll Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

Previously I had G-1 and Bryce Speed FX on my Bearwell Fleet blade. But my stops and backhand drives kept flying off the table, so I decided to put in all my savings and buy a new blade. It turned out that, even though it's a carbon blade, my stops don't float up at all — I can drop them right at the net — and I've also had fewer overshoots and net mistakes on my drives. Since Mima Ito and Ayane Morita already had G-1 on their forehand, I already had confidence in my forehand, but I was a little hesitant about putting V>01 Limber on my backhand — it turned out to match really well and was great. If you go with this combination, you really can't go wrong.

Loop drives get insane spin with this. Speed drives come out with plenty of speed too — I'm very satisfied.

What's amazing about this rubber is that, on top of the speed, when you brush the ball on a topspin drive it just grips and spins on its own even without you really feeling it, and the opponent ends up hitting it long. Flat hits and counters come out stable too. That said, the ball can fly off on its own, and the feel for the short game is a bit tricky. It feels hard at first, but as you use it, it softens up and becomes easier to handle! It's a really great rubber, so please give it a try!
