A jump map contains a series of difficult trick jumps, often requiring skills and techniques that are rare or impossible to perform in regular play. Generally, the player has an infinite supply of ammo and health, and any failure to meet the requirements of a specific jump will teleport you back to its beginning. A Jump Map is a map commonly used to test how good the player is at skilled jumping. Most Jump Maps are for Soldier or Demoman. However, there are Scout maps and even Engineer maps. Jump Maps normally use Jump Mod to keep the players from dying or having to reload while jumping.


Soldier Jump Maps

Soldier Jump Maps are maps designed for Soldiers to use their Rocket Launcher to rocket jump across with the objective being to get to the end of the map. Jumps are progressively harder as you pass each obstacle and may be categorized from easy to advanced.


Demoman Jump Maps

Demoman Jump Maps are maps that require the Demoman to use his Sticky Launcher to sticky jump past obstacles and across wide gaps.


Scout Jump Maps

Scout Jump Maps are a little different than Soldier or Demoman Jump Maps. Instead of using an explosive to propel yourself through obstacles, you utilize the Scout's double jump and the Force-A-Nature to get across the map.


Engineer Jump Maps

With the Engineer update came the wrangler which allowed manual control of sentries. It only took couple of days before people realized that using the sentries rockets, it was possible to rocket jump. While the number of engineer specific jump maps is low (increasing maps will be made as more people get the idea in their head), some jump maps do exist and other can be done as engineer.
