Vault preflight for beginners

Beginners on Vault should get comfortable sprin ging from the legs to a tight arched position with body at about a 45 degree angle.

Challenge = repeat in series with a sponge between the feet.

This will help avoid the common error later → piking during the preflight.

Teams who want to use this new feature to archive routines should check out a plug-in available for Adobe Premiere which speeds up the process.
