Ah, and such is the misunderstanding of short videos. One starts at the very bottom, dog jumps onto the bottom few inches - voluntarily - and moves into 2 on 2 off position (or 4 on the floor). We gradually move up the plank but when you reach a point where the dog cannot jump up then you pick them up. I'd be glad to explain to you the details - feel free to contact me.
Thank you for having a good enough understanding of positive reinforcement to pick up on this.

Thanks. This is our last piece of equipment to learn - well, except for the weave poles. Uggghhh. : )
