    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.

    ▲ PositiveSpin is applied effectively, smash trajectory is linear, and stops are controlled well. Its greatest appeal is the ability to handle any technique on a single sheet, explaining why many players choose it.
    ▽ CriticalThin contact results in chipping and dropping balls, requiring sufficient impact. Performance significantly affected by humidity and minor oil residue, demanding meticulous maintenance and care.

      Tenkyoku (Experience: 4〜5 years) Feels kind of like a tacky rubber...

      Reviews by user

      It has a certain amount of hardness,
      and unlike other tension rubbers,
      I think its distinguishing feature is that you can brush the ball like with a tacky rubber.
      I think it's good for players who like to generate their own spin. Topspin drives over the table
      are also easy to do, I think

      BUT!!!
      The price isn't all that different from Tenergy and the like,
      so I feel like the specs
      are a bit low for the price...

      Compared to Tenergy, smashing is easier with this one. Small techniques like the push are also easy to do, and it's cheaper than Tenergy, so it's great!

      Reviews by user

      This rubber is easier to use than Tenergy.
      Since it's made in Germany, it doesn't slip when lifting backspin, and the ball sinks into the sponge nicely, so it's incredibly stable.
      It's like Tenergy with glue applied lol

      I think this rubber is close to Tenergy. It gets enough spin that you can go for service aces with it.

      Reviews by user

      I have this on the forehand side of my Clipper Wood WRB right now. It's easy to use for everything - serves, topspin drives, smashes (forehand chops)! My backhand serve really bites, and my forehand serve gets enough spin to get service aces! So I plan to keep using this from now on.

      Gets great spin on the ball.
      Even though it's a tension rubber, it doesn't fly off on its own too much,
      so it's easy to control.
      The short game was good too.
      If it were around 5000 yen I'd keep using it, but....

      Fan (Experience: 4〜5 years) Good spin

      Reviews by user

      Among the Fastarc line, this is a spin-oriented rubber like the Tenergy 05.
      It has plenty of speed too, so topspin drives and the short game are no problem.
      I avoid topspin rallies and play close to the table.
