Translated from French.
A suggestion to everyone before giving a technical opinion: state your level, the blade used and please, please, the thickness 1.4 or 1.8, 2 or max of your sheets, because your feeling with the c1 or anything else will be radically different depending on your complete setup. I'm going to receive a Nittaku Septear Hinoki 7 Plus blade and 2 c1 2mm on both sides, assembled by tabletennis11. To help me, I chatted with an AI for 2 weeks, honestly giving my level, e.g. 55 equivalent to 1200 or 1300, in reality I play around 900, it depends so much on the opponent, we all have discouraging bogey players sometimes. It will be my Christmas present and not before. I'll be champing at the bit playing with the Donic Burn All+ with 2 Xiom Vega Europe which I loved for getting back into ping, the flaw of the Europe, topspin drives not precise enough, the tensor does too much, I was lent an OFF+ blade to test with 2mm LKT Rapid Speed sheets, much more precise and fewer errors because I direct the ball and not the crazy European tensor. I want to thank all the players who reviewed the c1, favourably or less so, which reassures me about my choice before playing with it. According to the AI it will be the perfect balance for my game, controlled short pushes from Reims and well-loaded mid-distance topspin drives, and serves too, and your many opinions mostly go in that direction. Even though your level, your blades and the sponge thickness of your c1 are too rarely specified, so after trying them out, I'll come back and give all my views on these sheets in 2mm on a Nittaku Septear blade, cordial greetings to all table tennis players.

Nittaku Fastarc C-1
by Nittaku
· Part of Nittaku Fastarc Series
The Nittaku Fastarc C-1 rubber is "Fast" with an "Arc"! It is the ingenious creation from Nittaku combining a “tension spin” top sheet with a “soft strong sponge”. It takes the best attributes from earlier Fastarc rubbers: G-1 and S-1 and utilizes them to make the new Fastarc C-1. This combination creates an incredible grip and speed to allow players to create artistic shots.
Speed: 96
Spin: 95
Control: 68
Hardness: Medium

Reviews of Nittaku Fastarc C-1 (40)
After long Testing and searching.. found my backhand rubber. Medium soft. Good Speed. Not too bouncy/katapult. Very good Control. Tested so many. 2.0mm on a Gewo Matrix Hybrid offensiv Minus blade
Love this rubber. Use it on my RPB penhold backhand, really suits my short, snappy game. Blocking feels decent and played some nice banana flicks with it too. Felt like I couldn't miss so whatever it is about this rubber, really suits my game. Tried various other rubbers like Rozena, Sanwei Target National Red for backhand and they were good too but like the speed and control for me, this feels just that little bit more alive but not overly so that it can't be controlled. Rewards good technique in spades. Love this. Not gonna take it off. Recommended to try it. I use the 1.8mm version to aid with some measure of control. Didn't feel like it bottomed out or anything either.
update: After using a variety of high-performance backhand rubbers, including Tenergy 05, Tenergy 05FX, Tenergy 80, Tibhar Evolution EL-P, Fastarc G-1, and Mark V, I found the Nittaku Fastarc C-1 to be one of the most stable rubbers I have used.
The C-1 solved many of the issues I experienced with faster rubbers, such as excessive catapult, inconsistent blocking, and poor control in the short game. Its linear and predictable response allowed me to play with more confidence, improving my consistency with flicks, loops, drives, blocks, and service returns. It is an excellent intermediate offensive rubber because it provides enough speed and spin while remaining forgiving and easy to control.
However, as my technique and attacking ability developed, I found that the C-1 lacked the extra grip and bite I wanted for a more aggressive topspin-based backhand. While it gave me confidence and consistency, I now need a rubber that offers a stronger connection with the ball and greater spin engagement without losing too much control.

Weighed around 45gm after cut on standard blade. It is an upgrade to me over vega Europe, used in 2mm thickness which is max for this rubber. Pushes are very nice. Lot of control. But still good power when playing offensive shots. I used it in my backhand. Works well with stiff blades like Boll alc.
