It is performed when the player runs into a small pit or a short wall or a small enemy at Small Mario's level like Goombas and Cannonballs. The player must be grounded in order to use Vaulting. 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.
