Aye, that's the way ye do it! Hehah!
The Demoman on sticky jumping training techniques

The Sticky Jumper is a secondary weapon for the Demoman. Similar in appearance to the Stickybomb Launcher, it features a painted orange muzzle plus an orange and white striped pattern on the magazine, and lacks a front iron sight. The weapon fires rounded Stickybombs.

The Sticky Jumper is mainly intended for training purposes and comes with a tripled ammunition count. It fires Stickybombs that deal no damage (unless reflected by a Pyro's Compression Blast), but will still inflict knock back on the user, allowing for the free practice of Sticky jumping techniques. The user is still vulnerable to self-damage from other explosive weaponry as well as fall damage.
