Parry from High Guard 2
From Scholar Victoria
Parry from high guard against an attack to the defender's upper left opening .
Canonically these are performed from reverse grip, but variations can be extrapolated from the orthodox grip.
Meyer also says we can extrapolate a variation of this for attacks to the upper right opening.
