Today we are speaking about the "couterspin" action.
This is an action which is exclusive to beach handball.
If the spin is spectacular, the counter-spin confers it a major plasticity if possible.
The first thing that the defender must try is to close the shooting angle without touching him/her.
Afterwards, he/she will wait for the spin to begin.
Finally, he/she will try to block the ball while jumping but avoiding contact with the opponent at all times.
The ideal would be to try and mimic the shooter's position.
If the spin is done when performing a vertical jump, the defender also jumps in vertical.
If the jump is horizontal, the defender jumps that way as well.
