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.

Bugs
- Projectiles cannot be moved or destroyed except by the player who laid the Stickybombs, or using the Short Circuit.
- There have been instances where a player has acquired the Scottish Resistance taunt achievement Second Eye with this item.
- Projectiles fired by the Sticky Jumper change team colors upon being reflected by a Pyro, but can still detonated by the Demoman. These reflected projectiles can damage the Pyro who reflected them; any resulting deaths will count as a suicide with the Stickybomb Launcher as a kill icon.
- On rare occasions if someone sticky jumps on top of a moving enemy player and then walks parallel to the player, the Demoman's foot steps will make the same noise as if on the surface he was standing on before the jump.
- If a Sticky Jumper projectile is to be airblasted, and the Pyro gets killed afterwards, the Sticky Jumper projectile disappears with it.
Trivia
- The RED projectile model was originally added in the WAR! Update for the Scottish Resistance but was unused in favor of the Scottish Resistance's final projectile design.
