Learn the Tennis Backhand - Slice Technique

In this video I'm going to show you how to hit a knifing backhand slice which is great for mixing up the speed and also great for coming into net. It's one of the most underrated shots that all the pros use. Watch this video to learn how to take your slice to the next level.

Kevin, when you have some time, would you do videos on drop shots and drop volleys?  Thanks

[cheriem]

Good video Kevin. Will start with this, then want to breakdown the entire body movement. What grip do you use? Can't wait to practice this.

[pterocarpus]

Great stuff!
Do you always use continental grip???

[sruler]

Kevin - are using the same grip as you use on your topspin ? Looks like the start position is the same so you can disguise which you are using like a pitcher

Hi Kevin, I know my question beats the purpose of your video but  how do i float it deep to the baseline? Also, what should i be focusing on when it comes to knifing it deep, short and floating it deep. Is the followthrough or reducing the forward motion ? I just like to add variations to the Slice. Thank you for your videos.

[shubhamray]
