Question: Which one-handed backhand grip is best for slice?
Answer: The Continental grip is better suited to slice than to other spins, so it is often associated with slice, but many players overtilt with it, resulting in a more floating, less driving slice. Some players prefer the Continental on extremely low balls, and many like to keep the same Continental grip for slice approach shots and all volleys.
The Eastern backhand grips are quite comfortable for driving slices, floating slices, flat shots, or topspins.
