I've decided to start a tutorial series to cover EVERYTHING in jumping.

Make suggestions on what to cover in particular and stuff. I won't really go into the heavy details, but will cover enough to learn all jumping techniques adequately.

Here's the list of tutorials I plan on making (in some order I don't know yet).

There's some categories to the series that I plan on having:
Jumping Info - General information pertaining to jumping
Jumping Basics - General jumping techniques/info applicable to both soldier and demo jumping
Demo Jumping - Everything about demoman jumping
Soldier Jumping - Everything about soldier jumping
Editing - Tips to editing jumps

And here's the first video, where I talk about why TF2 jumping is fun.

Maybe include a section for pure bunny hop (you can go up to 120% class speed, any more you get reset back to 100%) and maybe Demoman ctap, even though it's pretty useless (4starters D9 double is a single sticky ctap, if you need an example).

It's just a normal stickyjump...

make sure to include something about how jump isn't something that just happens overnight. for the most part people need to practice and spend time doing it and not just get frustrated and quit when someone tells them they shouldnt try to learn airpogo until they know what a stickybomb does.

Great idea! So many tutorials out there but nobody have been brave enough to talk about everything. This intro was really well made.

I hope you will make a video, or atleast a part of a video, about how some people tried to cheat (showing fake runs) and how it can destroy the community.

If he's going to include a demo bounce might as well include a demo ctap, what's the issue.

It might be a good idea to also include the uncrouched demo pogos for ground/walls and the method to transition from a crouched pogo into a uncrouched pogo and back again.

Yeah for sure walka.

Any good ideas for what to call powerbounces? Never was too fond of that term. Though maybe it's been too long and that term has stuck.
