Best blade for Nittaku Fastarc G-1

[jfolsen]

I have played with Fastarc G1 in 2.0 on my backhand for at least 3 years. The blade is a Timo Boll ALC. I have tried a variety of other rubbers, including Fastarc C1 and Dignics, but always go back.

If you want a modern 7-ply with 5ply feeling, my recommendation is the Bernadette Szocs Signature 1. IT is a blade I would happily play with and I still may. But it is definitely thicker than your 6mm limit, but I love the feeling and the handle. I do not like the Powerwood, but since we have strong supporters of that blade, I will keep the feeling to myself.

But if you get the JRE, that is a good blade too. Good luck with it.

This B.Szocs S1 is on sale at 37 euro. Not bad at all...

Hello everyone,
I'd like to try Nittaku Fastarc G-1 and it looks to me reading some reviews this rubber is best with all wood blades.

I'm also interested in Joola Rossi Emotion, Donic Persson Powerplay and Tibhar Stratus Powerwood. In particular the JRE is currently on discount.

Would JRE be a good candidate for G-1?

Thanks.

I would say try a nittaku acoustic carbon (inner or outer depending on your playstyle).

I eventually went for a JRE with G1. I'm very happy with this setup. Very good spin, I'm amazed.
