Other Movement Techniques
Double Jump
When in the air as scout, Scouts can press jump again for an additional jump. The jump will move you in whichever direction you are moving, and is extremely useful for maneuvering around maps or throwing off attacking opponents.
Rocket Jump
Main article: Rocket Jumping
Soldiers can shoot a rocket near themselves to achieve height or speed through the air. This can be useful for running towards a battle, obtaining height advantage, attacking players, or fleeing to safety. There are multiple jump techniques to help you achieve more speed or height. Gunboats causes Soldiers to take 60% less damage while rocket jumping.
Sticky Jump
Main article: Sticky Jumping
Demomen can also jump, crouch, and detonate a sticky near their feet for a boost. This causes more self-damage than a Soldier's rocket jump, but also provides a bigger boost. A Demoman will almost always sticky jump during the rollout at the start of a round.
Explosive Surfing
Any class is capable of timing a jump with an enemy's projectile and using it to their advantage. This is a common practice among Medics, who often surf away from damage and to the safety of their team.
