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.

Image Studio （Experience：４〜５ years） Overwhelming stability

I used to use it thickly on my backhand during junior high school.
Above all, the G1 offered great stability.
Backhand drives and cuts were stable, but basic table techniques and blocks were especially stable.
I think it's a perfect rubber for rally-type players or players who want stability on their backhand.
However, it seems prone to tipping, so it might not be suitable for people with poor footwork or bad posture, but I think it's still worth trying.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

The spin was really noticeable.
In particular, hitting with backspin was easy, and loop drives were very effective.
The topsheet is strong and lasts for at least 4 months, but the sponge gradually loses its power after about 3 months.
By the way, I used the extra-thick version.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Hard

Kotaros It's heavier than I thought...

This was the rubber I used when I started playing table tennis again after being away from it for over a decade.
My first impression was that it was heavy... I had the impression that it was often used by junior high and high school students, so I put it on without worrying about the weight, but I was surprised by how heavy it was.
It does spin, but not too much. Blocking is very easy.
Receiving also felt easy, probably because the sheet is less sensitive.
I thought it would be an easy rubber to use if you adjust the weight on the backside.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

（Experience：６〜１０ years） It might bounce a little more than the older generation 47.5°...

I used the MAX. It weighed 72g before cutting and approximately 51g after cutting.
A true masterpiece of early-generation German rubbers.
The sheet is soft, but the sponge is stiff for a 47.5° shaft, the exact opposite of today's mainstream rubbers.
The prevalence of heavier rubbers is also a characteristic of the older generation.
It has a speedier, slightly straighter trajectory than the Rakza 7, which is from the same generation.
They are similar in that they offer just the right amount of bounce, decent spin, and are fairly easy to grip and increase backspin.
However, it feels more slippery than the Rakza 7. It's particularly difficult to counter topspin, and there are many situations where you'll feel the sheet's limitations.
If you buy it online, you can get it for under ¥5,000 with significant discounts, so it might be worth giving it a try given its good value for money.

Used for forehand. This rubber was quite easy to use for hitting the ball on the table, such as hitting the ball with a tack or a push. The technique of hitting the ball with a drive, such as hitting the ball with a backspin, was a bit peculiar. Well, I got used to it quickly, so it wasn't a problem. The balance between the table and the attack is very good, and the amount of rotation of the drive changes, so you can hit balls that are difficult for the opponent to catch. Highly recommended for players who attack a lot on the forehand side. However, it is difficult to play in the back court. If anything, it is recommended for players who fight more in the front court. I think that intermediate players can use it well. Anyway, it's really good!

I used the MAX on the forehand side for about a year.
Before that, I used the extra thick rubber, but it had more bite than the extra thick rubber.
(Against upspin drives)...It felt like it flew straight, and it bit into the ball, so it felt a little softer than the extra thick rubber. Advanced players with strong impacts may feel the ball drop when they hit it hard. Also, I thought it was a rubber that competes with the power of the ball rather than pushing it with the amount of spin!
(Meet)...It's pretty good. The smash is also impressive. Recommended for players who use a lot of meat!
(Against downspin drives)...With speed drives, if you make a good impact, the ball will go well, but if you don't make it halfway, you will make a mistake. Basically, it's a rubber that you have to do something about yourself. The same goes for loops. However, the amount of spin is inferior to modern high-end rubbers, but the difference in the amount of spin makes it scary for your opponent.
(Counter type)...It's good because you can take it! However, I felt a little chipping against balls with a lot of spin.
[The G-1 is well-balanced and moderately hard, so it is recommended for intermediate and above level riders!
However, for junior and senior high school students and beginners who do not yet have enough impact, other Fastark series are better.]All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

Is it a bit easier to use than Dignics? It's powerful and easy to serve. Of course it's also good for driving. I had my junior cutman try it, and he was able to cut and increase the power of his forehand. It might be interesting to use it in the middle of the thickness of the cutman as well.
