Fastarc G-1 vs Tenergy 05
G-1 is the Fastarc looping flagship: grippy Japanese tensor, 45°, more dwell than Tenergy 05 and a lower street price in Europe.


Tenergy 05 is faster on the Combined index and throws higher. G-1 is the usual recommendation when someone says they want “Japanese feel” rather than Butterfly kick.
Both are inverted OFF tensors. G-1 pairs naturally with Nittaku Acoustic; Tenergy 05 pairs with Viscaria / Innerforce — but those are habits, not physics.

Verdict
Tenergy 05 for Spring Sponge throw. G-1 for Japanese dwell at a saner price. Same attacking job, different national recipe.
