Tennis Serve: The Slice

A few notes from my coach on how the hit a slice serve.

1. Continental grip
2. Toss to front right, i.e. towards the far corner towards your front right. (In 1 o'clock direction a few inches into the court).
3. Pause in trophy position
4. Rotate shoulders, horizontally, first
5. Follow with arm and wrist motion; be sure to add speed with arm and wrist.  Don't just use your shoulder rotation to whip your arm.
6. Follow through in the direction that you would like the ball to go.
