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 C-1 comes into the series softer than G-1 and P-1 but a bit harder than S-1 for more speed while still maintaining a high degree of control. Slower and controllable in the short game, good placement and pace on medium shots, and power on solid shots.

I'll write this as a comparison with G-1.
It's a rubber with the same topsheet as G-1, just a different sponge. Here's a summary of my impressions from hitting with it:Spin: G1 > C1
Bounce: G1 < C1
Control: G1 ≤ C1 *for intermediate players
Power: G1 > C1Even though it shares the same topsheet as G-1, the feel on the ball is completely different.
It's also nothing like Tenergy, but in terms of rubber families, you could line them up like this:G1 ⇔ Tenergy 05
C1 ⇔ Tenergy 80If your backhand is mostly about quick, flicking techniques like blocking, put C1 on the backhand; up to intermediate level, it's also fine on the forehand.
If you want to overwhelm with power and spin, go with G1. If you're more rally-oriented and prioritize balance and control, C1 is also cheaper, so it's a strong option.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

I switched over from Rasant R42. The spin on my serves went up like crazy. Even with a normal push, I can put real spin on it and get the opponent to miss. That said, on drives, even swinging all out, I don't get as much power as with Rasant. Also, when I'm driving, there's a decent chance the ball slips off and hits the net.

It really shines on counters — you find yourself landing them almost without thinking.
The short game in general is easy to handle too.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

The metallic sound when you smash is intense. For people without much power, it feels like it generates more spin than G-1. Compared to GFT45, another 45-degree rubber, the spin feels a bit weaker, but it feels more stable. If you're torn between different 45-degree rubbers, I think it's worth trying.

This is a rubber I was really into for a while.
Easier to use than G-1 and more stable. Just consistently stable.
You can go with G-1 on forehand and C-1 on backhand and make it work.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

Lost in equipment choices (Experience: １１〜２０ years) A different kind of rubber from G-1

This rubber combines the G-1 topsheet with the S-1 sponge. If anything, it's more of an update to S-1. Unlike G-1, it feels like a classic, mainstream high-tension rubber. No complaints on either forehand or backhand. Aside from the Tenergy FX series, I think this might be the most powerful rubber out there at medium hardness. I'd recommend pairing it with a fairly thick, fast-hitting blade.

Around me
junior high kids who just started
and can't swing properly yet
are reaching for hard, advanced-level rubbers like
Hurricane, 05, G1
Rasant 47 and so on
that don't match their levelout of every 10 balls they hit one good shot
and the other 9 are
straight balls or misses, over and over.They don't have enough strength
to sink the ball into rubbers harder than 47 degrees
a hardness of around 42-45 degrees
would really be optimal for them.If using the gear you want to use matters more
than actually hitting good shots
then there's nothing more to say.This C-1 is a perfect match for
players around second-year junior high
who are steadily building up their skill.For players not quite there yet
maybe Rakza 7 Soft or Raigan
would be better.It's not as soft as people say
it's really a medium-hardness rubber.Serves, drives, and smashes
are all well balanced
it's a really good rubber.
Junior high kids who want to get stronger
should pick a rubber like this.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft
