Nittaku Fastarc S-1

The Nittaku Fastarc S-1 is a tensor rubber specifically designed to generate high speed and spin for aggressive forehand attacks. Its construction is ideal for table tennis players who rely on fast loops and powerful drives.

It features a unique layered construction that combines a high-speed core with a softer, more elastic outer layer. This design helps players maintain excellent ball control while producing massive amounts of spin.

The Fastarc S-1 is manufactured by Nittaku, a highly respected Japanese table tennis brand. The rubber is actually produced in collaboration with the German manufacturer ESN, which is famous for its high-tension tensor rubbers.

The S-1, which stands for 'Speed 1', prioritizes explosive velocity compared to the Fastarc G-1, which focuses more on extreme spin generation. The S-1 offers a slightly softer sponge feel to help with control during high-speed rallies.
