Vaulting is a move that can be performed by Mario and the other playable characters in Super Mario Run. It is performed when the player moves into a small pit or a short wall or a short object or a small enemy at Small Mario's level like Goombas and Cannonballs. The player automatically jumps over the obstacle or enemy. If the object in question is a wall or enemy, the player character uses their arms to give them the boost. There are multiple animations for vaulting. Enemies are temporarily halted as the player vaults over them.

Only vaults over obstacles and enemies produce blue stars that contribute to starting a Coin Rush. Vaulting across gaps does not have that effect.

If the player taps the screen while vaulting, they will perform a vaulting jump, allowing the player to defeat the enemy that they are vaulting over while performing a high jump. Timing matters, as the starting position of the jump is based upon when the player begins the Vaulting Jump.

The player can perform a vault while near the ground, not necessarily while running on the ground. This means a chain of consecutive stomps can be kept with well placed vaults, and than the player can vault backward over objects by wall jumping toward them. The player has to be facing whatever they are vaulting over. The speed of a vault is dependent on the player's speed when it started. Vaulting over objects or enemies cannot be done consecutively. This is such that the player can vault over multiple obstacles or enemies in a row, but cannot climb staircases like the Final Stairs by vaulting up. If the object was a wall, the player stands behind it until they choose to jump over.

Only obstacles and enemies that are one block high can be vaulted over. When vaulting across gaps, the player can successfully cross a one or two block wide gap. Three blocks wide is too far, but the player will try to vault. They will end below the target platform, requiring Edge Climbing on the opposite side's wall to get up. The player will not vault over four block wide gaps at all.

Enemies with shells such as Koopa Troopas and Buzzy Beetles enter their shells while being vaulted over, and a Vaulting Jump is an alternate means of kicking their shell. Enemies that cannot be stomped can never be vaulted over. Koopa Shells and Buzzy Shells cannot be vaulted over: a stationary shell is kicked, while a moving shell inflicts damage and is kicked if it does not defeat the player. Invincible characters cannot vault on enemies because the invincibility defeats the enemy first.
