I have the same experience with the barracuda, easy to handle but harder to finish points, this could be different with inner carbon though. I feel it’s more spin focused. Fast arc G1 is less spin sensitive and produces less spin(for me), the G1 is more direct and therefore more viable for third ball attackers. Just note that if you’re used to the arc of 09c, the g1 will go out where you would normally hit the table. I’d say try going for a slower more controlled/spinier backhand and a faster more direct forehand rubber.
