Hi Thomas,

The best thing to do is to try to develop a grip that you can use effectively for both the forehand and backhand.

This will eliminate the problem.  You will find as the game gets faster you will not have time to be changing your grip too much between shots.

Slow to Fast Progression

It's important to practice your shots slowly to get the correct technique. That will lead you to being able to hit the ball faster. You do need to practice these faster shots in training before using them in a match.
