You could speed that process up by noting the extension and movements originally employed but obviously that would need to be verified.

I used the Arca Cube on my recent Spring trip and it works very well. Now that I have a quick release, I can simply take the camera off the tripod, put it in a plastic bag to protect it from rain/sand, and lay it on the ground next to my tripod, or put it on my flattened video tripod. The whole point of taking the camera off the tripod was to leave it in the exact shooting position, so I certainly wouldn't fold it and lose my focus and other settings.
