Nittaku Fastarc G1 vs Butterfly Glayzer

[Robin0910]

Hi!
I’m about to buy a new backhand rubber and since both rubbers cost about the same in my country I was wondering how they compared to each other.

If you’ve used both rubbers, please tell me the differences in terms of bounciness, spin, speed, control over the table, power away from the table and durability
Thank you so much in advance.

I think G1 grips the ball better. Everything else is pretty similar.

I pretty sure G1 much faster

I've used both rubbers and believe G1 is slightly quicker , Glazer is really underrated,but my girlfriend uses G1 and her rubbers are nearly 2 years old and still going strong !!! G1 is brilliant all-rounder !!!

Glayzer is quite slower than G-1 and more demanding to play. Most people would describe the Glayzer as more controlled because of that.
I have played the G-1 for a long time and playing the first few drives with the Glayzer basically made the ball drop into the net, because i was not used to need to put in so much power to accelerate the ball.

So basically the only thing that Glayzer has in favour is its control?

My guess is that Glayzer is more linear than G1. All tensors have a sort of threshold where the ball just fly away.
