A guard in High Prime, protecting the upper and inside line.

In this position the point hangs to the opponent's right hip, while the guard is held at head height. This guard may be even higher than shown in the image such that the fencer can look under the shell at the opponent.

It is an excellent guard to withdraw in after an attack.
