beautiful review . complete and practical , thank you ... these rubbers become very famous in the market and they are known as a good tenergy alternative . both are fine combination with fast and medium speed blades
When I tried to make forehand topspin using Nittaku S-1, the balls were going off the table. So I tried Nittaku G-1 on both sides. I had been using Tenergy 64 and 80 for many years. The change was a resounding success. They are very similar for the way I play.
@@danialiman8431 Much much better, same for C1, there is a reason S1 is significantly cheaper. P1 is similar to C1 but it is faster, the fastest of the fastarc serie.
Awesome ! Now my only question is how much difference between Nittaku Acoustic wood blade and the carbon version?? It's been a few years and I'm keen to upgrade but nobody at my club has one and only way I can find out is buying one
I actually tried the P1 first which I actually found slower than the g1, despite the fact it's designed for the plastic ball. Also for the life time, I felt like they wouldn't last me longer than 2 months (playing 15hours a week) which is really generous because they we're completely different (and dead) at the end... 200 hours is highly unlikely I think, but they are really good rubbers, pity they don't have thicker than 2.0 mm
P1 is certainly faster than G1 as Nittaku rated it and i tested them and 2mm is max because the fastarc topsheet are very thick (2mm) and it it not allowed to play competition with more than 4mm. Still wondering why this year 2020 video didnt talk about P1 the most recent one and only one made and tested for plastic ball.
C1 is okay for backhand. G1 is Great for forehand and backhand if you even train a little. S1 is just not very good. low throw, not very fast. Maybe for beginners or people who just want to block.
I agree except G1 can be too hard for BH is not advanced lvl but C1 is more bouncy than G1. What about P1, did you test it? I did and i think P1 is similar to C1 but it is faster, the fastest of the fastarc serie as Nittaku rated them.
Lots of people say that lower level players should use rubbers with a softer sponge, but is it possible for for me (lower level player) that has done other sports to quickly advance into a harder sponge like the hurricane 3 neo and learn how to hit the ball hard quite early the career? I feel that tensor rubbers give less control because the force is kinda artificially added. The hurricane 3 neo gives the exact force I put into it and I am able to control it better close to the net. I am using a blade that has high control and is flexible (5-ply wood, stiga offensive classic, ALL+). My channel will have videos of me during my progression.
Hi :) I just bought a viscaria as well! I will put G1 as a FH and BH. Did you boost the rubber? I think i will put a layer on each rubber of falco long booster
Hey, I am looking for a rubber that would have a big arc like on Rasanter R42, and a chop and ball feel like Rakza Z. With hardness somewhere inbetween the two, and just a little bounce. Been thinking whether C1 would fit, or maybe you can recommend something different altogether? Thanks.
I use Viscaria blade. My forehand rubber is Tenergy 19. Recently, I switched my backhand rubber from G1 to C1, instantly I get better control and flip. I recommend C1 for backhand. G1 is too weak for forehand and too fast for backhand. My level around 1700-1800.
yes G1 can be too hard for BH is not advanced lvl indeed but C1 is more bouncy and softer than G1. P1 is similar to C1 but it is faster, the fastest of the fastarc serie.
What I dont understand in table tennis rubbers is that harder sponges often times are described as faster, but isnt it really that it is able to grip the ball at faster speeds?
@@z0uLessfrom my understanding, harder sponges have more tension, therefore the return bounce of the ball is faster than softer ones (similar to high tension on badminton or tennis strings) While the softer ones produces more spin, it loses out to the raw speed produced by the bounce of the harder rubbers
Wtf 2200-2800 pts ? Do you know just how many players in each country have this?? Nittaku can close the store immediatly... Just where did you saw that stats?
Would love to see an updated version of this video including P-1 🙏

Oh man, ive been using Nittaku S-1 and it wasnt a really good experience in the spin, how far better is the g-1?
Yeah but G1 can be too hard for BH if not advanced lvl.
@@danialiman8431 Much much better, same for C1, there is a reason S1 is significantly cheaper.

Thanks for this video, Samson. I've been playing with Nittaku Fastarc G-1 (both sides) for more than 4 years now and I absolutely love them.
Designed for players row heavily depends on the blade.
Thanks for the info!
I just liked ur videos , subscribed ur channel
You forgot P1. Who is it for ?
poop 1
I tested it i think P1 is similar to C1 but it is faster and less gripy, the fastest of the fastarc serie as Nittaku rated them.

Muy buenos el vídeo pero no tengo traductor en tiendo x partes
I am level 3000. Which rubber should I take?
Wow, it says for players +2000. And I'm using it at 900 points
Excellent review Samson. Does the G-1 need a layer of booster or does it work without it?
How to know which level we at?
What blade suits with Nittaku Fastarc G-1?
I use the Nittaku Latika Soft and i like it a lot
Viscaria or Timo Boll ALC. That type of blade.
You mean like a carbon blade is ideal. Would a gewo hybrid be suitable
I'm using it with Nittaku Violin
Amultar zlc...timobollzlc

I used P1 and G1 on the same blade, and P1 is much faster.

G1 and C1 do not have 'artificial' catapult like other Tensor rubbers, so they are extremely easy to control.
@@Waingro808 ah, ok, I allready bought Yasaka Mark V so I guess I will have the benefit of using a non-catapult sponge either way
I Just Bought a Viscaria With G1 BH Definitely Liking IT 😎
Hi :) I just bought a viscaria as well! I will put G1 as a FH and BH. Did you boost the rubber? I think i will put a layer on each rubber of falco long booster
Recomend me pls a rubbber for mostly spin playing , i somsthimes hit hard also and i use activ blocks also.
Thank you.
Hi, any compare Nittaku C1 vs Butterfly Rozena?
Rozena much bouncier/faster, so less control. Choose whether you want speed vs. control.
@@Waingro808 thx for reply, just about hardnes, is c1 softer?
@@matejweiss896 same. 45 degrees on ESN scale
Thabks for reply.

I guess it's all about the rotation,, harder sponge produces more rotation than the softer . It effects the speed of the ball
@@yugahardiyansah7492 Now I am even more confused. Can you describe what is actually happening to make the ball rotate more when the rubber is harder?
@@z0uLess i said harder sponge, not the topsheet
@@yugahardiyansah7492 yea, I see rubbers as the whole thing ... continue
@@z0uLessfrom my understanding, harder sponges have more tension, therefore the return bounce of the ball is faster than softer ones (similar to high tension on badminton or tennis strings)

Hi, will you be trying/ reviewing Sieger PK50?
Here you go... ua-cam.com/video/hn8Cbgd6rn0/v-deo.html
thank you, it was very useful and interesting but what about P1 the only one made for plastic ball? It is like it doesnt exist in your video.
Thanks for the vidéo, what Will be the best one for 1 ply hinoki (jpen in my case).
🙏
What blade would you recommend for a 1500 level offensive, attacking, looping player for the C1? Thanks!
Wtf 2200-2800 pts ?
Do you know just how many players in each country have this??
Nittaku can close the store immediatly...
Just where did you saw that stats?
It is his opinion dude.
@@Julottt Opinion =/= bullshit
How is the fastarc P-1 and C-1 for backhand? I like to use a hybrid rubber for forehand like Yasaka Rakza Z
In general these TTR recommendations are non-sense
