	Every weapon deals a little bit of knockback on hit. On the ground, this effect is so negligable that a Player can safely ignore this. However in the air the effect becomes much more significant. While retreating from enemies, it may be useful to jump and utilize the knockback form all weapons to aid in your retreat. You can crouch during this as well to increase knockback to go even farther.		Every weapon deals a little bit of knockback on hit.

	=== Double ~~Jump~~ ===		=== Double jump ===
	Scout is the only class with the ability to double jump. By pressing the jump key while in the air the Scout will perform a second, mid-air jump. The extra height and distance this granst can allow the Scout allow access to areas other classes cannot access. You can also jump in an alternate direction, cancelling your momentum one way. This cna be utilized to avoid enemy fire. A careless double jump does leave a Player vulnerable and can be easily punished.		Scout is the only class with the ability to double jump.

	== Soldier ~~Jumps~~ ==		== Soldier ==
	=== Rocket ~~Jumping~~ ===		=== Rocket jumping ===
	Soldier is able to move quickly by using the knockback from his Rocket launcher to move quickly through an area. The most basic rocket jump is done by looking down, jumping and crouching for maximum knockback, and shooting. Rocket jumping comes at the cost of some health, so it is not wise to constantly rocket jump without access to a healing source. This technique is used to go over enemies, past obstacles or reach points faster. When a Soldier is rocket jumping he displays smoking trails on his boots, a trait shared by [[Demoman]].

	== Pyro ~~Jumps~~ ==		== Pyro ==
	=== Twin Barrel ~~Jumping~~ ===		=== Twin Barrel jumping ===
	The [[Twin Barrel]] has a knockback mechanic which can be utilized to pseudo-jump in mid-air. The Twin Barrel knocks the user opposite of where the weapon is pointing. This can be used to travel both horizontally and vertically. This technique can be utlized to reach the frontlines faster, use flank routes the [[Pyro]] could not access otherwise and prevent fall damage.

	=== Reflect ~~Jumping~~ ===		=== Reflect jumping ===
	Just like a Soldier using a rocket to Rocket-Jump, a [[Pyro]] can use a [[Airblast\|reflected]] rocket to jump. A reflected projectile follows the Pyro's crosshair. Time the reflect and point the crosshair towards the ground, and crouch-jump. It is possible to jump with any reflect explosive, but rockets are the easiest. This technique can allow Pyros to catch their enemies off-guard mid-fight.		Just like a Soldier using a rocket to Rocket-Jump, a [[Pyro]] can use a [[Airblast\|reflected]] rocket to jump.

	== Demoman ~~Jumps~~ ==		== Demoman ==
	=== Stickybomb ~~Jumping~~ ===		=== Stickybomb jumping ===
	Similarly to a Soldier using the knockback from his rockets to jump, Demoman is able to use the knockback from his [[Stickybomb Launcher\|stickies]] to propel himself. The most basic form of this is shooting a stickybomb, then jumping on top, crouching and detonating the explosive. Its best to shoot on front of yourself to compensate for the stickybomb's arm time. The direction and speed of the Demoman is influenced by the placement and movement of the Demoman.

The direction and speed of the Demoman is influenced by the placement and movement of the Demoman.

	=== Mine ~~Jumping~~ ===		=== Mine jumping ===
	Very similar to sticky jumping, but instead of a sticky bomb its with a [[Mine Layer\|mine]]. Mines detonate when the [[Demoman]] who placed them or by enemies get close enough. Mines detonate after 0.6 seconds of the wielder or enemies get close, so time your jump carefully. The way this works is very similar to sticky jumping. You need walk close to the mine, wait for the right moment, jump over the mine, crouch and go flying. This method is used a lot less since mines require more strict timing. Enemies can also do this by walking close to enemy mines and jumping over them. Theres even an [[achievement]] for it.

	=== Pipe ~~Jumping~~ ===		=== Pipe jumping ===
	The Demoman can also use the force from his [[Grenade Launcher\|pipes]] to jump. However this is less common as the direction of pipes is a lot less uncontrollable compared to stickies.

	== Engineer ~~Jumps~~ ==		== Engineer ==
	=== Building ~~Step Jump~~ ===		=== Building step jump ===
	Unlike his teammates, [[Engineer]] [[Buildings]] have collsion for the Engineer who built them. This is excecuted by crouch-jumping on top of a Building and using this extra height to reach areas. Of all buildings, [[Dispenser\|Dispensers]] are the most convenient Building to use as a step up. [[Sentry\|Sentries]] cost too much metal for a similar height, and there is practically no height gained from a [[Teleporter]]. Contrary to what one may think, Buildings do no have to be fully constructed to reach maximum height. The height a Building gives is constant, regardless of contruction animation.

	[[Jump Pads]] are a Building which allow an Engineer and any of his teammates to reach heights similar to a perfectly excecuted Rocket Jump. When an ally or the Engineer presses the jump button while over a jump pad, their jump gains significant height and distance which can be used to access explosive jumper's shortcuts. Jump pads are best placed by high ledges so that teammates may reach them. It is possible to combine a Jump Pad-jump with another movement technique such as Twin Barrel Jumping to reach even greater distances.

	=== Coilgun ~~Boosting~~ ===		=== Coilgun boosting ===
	The [[Coilgun]] has a charging function. When charged the Coilgun's projectile increases in speed and damage, however charging the gun for too long will result in the weapon overcharging, causing an explosion at the user's position. This explosion deals 50 self-damage and propels the user upward. The height achieved can be increased by jumping before the explosion occurs. The user's trajectory doesn't change based on where the Coilgun is aimed; the user is always launched upwards. However the trajectory travelled is still influenced by the user's previous movement. This can be very useful for allowing the Engineer to reach higher places, but the health cost is significant and this technique can only be used twice (not counting fall damage) before it will kill the user.
