The idea is to move the upper body back to evade a strike to your head while keeping your lower body relatively in the same area. This allows you to quickly move back into position for a counter attack.
To execute simply lean back, shifting about 70% of your weight onto the back foot, then quickly push off the back foot "snapping" you back into position. When leaning back make sure your chin is down. Depending on how much you lean back, you may need to take a small step back with your rear foot so that you are not off balance.
Your counter strike when using the snap back is usually the jab or cross.
