Every technique is as easy to pull off as it is with Rozena. But when it comes to putting spin on the ball, this Vega Europe is actually easier. The best thing about this Vega Europe is how good the control is. I'd really recommend this rubber to beginners. Pushes and blocks are also really easy to do! Smashes land consistently too, so it's genuinely a great pick for beginners. It's not just for beginners either — I'd recommend it to anyone looking for stability. By the way, I think it's also good for choppers.

I think it's a pretty good rubber, but it just didn't suit me. A friend told me it spins more than Rozena, but to me it felt like Rozena had more spin. Still, the difference isn't huge. Topspin drives were harder to do than with Rozena. That said, compared to Rozena, I'd still say it's on the easier side to use overall. The techniques I found easiest with Fastarc C1 were counters and blocks. Since this rubber doesn't have much power to begin with, counters and blocks were really easy to pull off. By the way, compared to Rozena or Vega Europe, this rubber is more affected by incoming spin when you push, so at first you might drop quite a few balls with heavy backspin on them. [You get used to it, though.] But in exchange for being more affected by spin, you can get a really biting push in return. Since it didn't suit me, I ended up saying some pretty harsh things about it, but plenty of pros use it too, so if you can master it, I think it's a really good rubber. Oh, and I forgot to mention — when it comes to the push, Fastarc C1 actually generates more spin than Rozena.

Before using it, my image was that it would just fly a lot and be hard to control, but that wasn't the case. The control was actually pretty decent. It has quite a bit of speed too, but since the control is decent, I think a middle schooler who can make it to about the 4th round of a district tournament could handle it. So I think a middle schooler who typically makes it to around the 4th round of a district tournament could use this well. [Just my guess though, just a guess] Also, maybe because the arc is high, drives against underspin were about as easy as with Rozena. I thought blocking would be hard because of how much it bounces, but it actually wasn't hard at all. Pushes were also easy to do. Also, I felt it suited a drive-oriented style better than a smash-oriented one. I think it would suit a player who likes to attack first and take the initiative. If you're the type who attacks first, I think you'll find this a great rubber. I forgot to mention it, but there's one weakness — it's a bit heavier than a normal rubber. But other than that, I couldn't really find any weakness, so it's a really good rubber. There aren't many rubbers with performance this good at this price. Please give it a try!!!!!!!!!!!

It's really easy to use. It's easy to lift backspin. Every technique is easy to pull off. I think it's a rubber anyone can use. That's probably why it's popular, but for someone who's already fairly skilled it might be a bit lacking. I think this rubber is good for people who want to build up a variety of techniques. Once you become advanced you can probably do any technique anyway, so at that point you won't need Rozena as much. So I think it's a rubber for beginners to intermediate players. Highly recommended for beginners to intermediate players. Since anyone can use it, if you're a beginner or intermediate player unsure what rubber to get, please give it a try.

This rubber is really good. I used the medium thickness — not sure how it performs at max thickness, but even though it's not super strong, it produces solid knuckle balls. It also flies in a straight line, so opponents seem to have a hard time reading it. The spin is decent, though it's not on the level of Booster SA or VO102. You can hit it like inverted rubber and it still goes in, but of course sticking to proper short-pips technique will bring out the rubber's strengths more. It also has good grip on the ball, so for short pips it's easy to do both topspin drives and chiquitas. This is a really good rubber, so I highly recommend it.
