Exactly, the most crucial part of the video for me, I've always felt awkward with my footwork and body position when trying to play an aggressive forehand slice down the line, now I know why :) @@TopTennisTrainingOfficial does the same thing apply to an attacking down the line backhand slice? Should I do the cross behind step there as well? (with the other foot obviously)

Hey Simon. Good for you for putting this up! Other than for extreme on the run stretch replies, most pros have frowned on forehand slice ever since the baseline game took prominence - whether for returns or rallies. A knife forehand slice used sparingly as a response to a good inside out forehand, however, can be both defensive if time is short and also offensive as it presents a trajectory and spin that is foreign and therefore usually a surprise (especially from a lefty to a righty's backhand) - often drawing an error, floater or at least a defensive response. Nice to see you are bucking the trend with yet another great lesson. Best

Slice is good when it bounces in the weird zone that's almost an overhead but not high enough. Best training for a slice is honestly working hard on volleys. Volleys are usually hit with backspin so a slice is just volley hit further back

I think the advice was good. The only thing I question is if people need to change the forehand grip at all. I watch pros who appear to vary the motion slightly for all the scenarios the instructor is advocating. The backhand/forehand motion cant be the same simply because they are mechanically different because of where the arm connects. Good info though.
@TopTennisTrainingOfficial

As in you would slice with your usual forehand grip? For example, a player using a semi western or western forehand grip would keep that grip and try to slice with it? You can try it yourself, let me know how your wrist is afterwards 😂
