Are there any hybrid rubbers which feel like Fastarc G1?

So I love the rubber on the backhand but I’d love something tackier, something that has a similar sponge and is similarly linear. Could be harder.

You might want to consider Vega Pro H or Euro H. Probably Pro H as it's the same hardness as G1 and a little faster than Euro H.

Yes, I can easily buy Vega Pro H and Asia H but I heard they are lot slower than G1

It's slower. Not slow, just slower.

Is it linear tough rather than being catapulty ? Have you tried Vega Pro H?

Yes and I use Vega Euro H on the backhand at the moment. It's definitely a hybrid rubber but it's the most linear rubber in the Vega series. A friend of mine has Pro H. Pro H and Euro H are very similar, Pro H is just a little harder and faster.

Asia H probably even more in that direction but I have never tried it.

Xiom will also release the Omega VIII line including Omega VIII Hybrid next year.

I haven't tried that many hybrids, but even the few that are considered "linear", like NUZN and Hybrid MK, I found them considerably bouncier in the short games than G1.
