Fingernails are upward and the thump position is at 1 or 2 o'clock for right handed and at 10 or 11 o'clock for left handed fencers. Some fencers repeatedly practice parry 4 from the 6, 8 or 7 positions by rolling the wrist from supination to pronation, at the instant of engagement. This video addresses an injury that may occur when performing this parries, especially if it's performed as a strong reflexive unforeseen action. CoachGerryD
What is a counter riposte? A defensive engagements made when going to the forth position is called a "parry of four".  If the "parry of four" is executed against an opponent's riposte, the riposte that follows is called a "counter riposte".
