Flametrimping.

Also, FTP.

It's something I've kept to myself since the release of 2.0 but felt I should share it anyway since I've shared it with a few people already.

The technique is simple and makes the pyro usable on offense but has absolutely no use on defense. This could also be a skill used on skill maps.

First, you must understand how the trimp works. I can't explain why it works, or how, as it doesn't make sense to me. Just think of it as a jump and a half when you've only done half a jump. Eh. See what I mean? You'll know what I'm talking about if you've ever jump a lot on a ramp. Every now and then you'll go higher than a normal jump. That is a trimp.

And that is what we are taking advantage of with this move.

So, we all know by now that the flamethrower has some push to it. In fact, it can propel you in whatever direction you are facing. If you see where I am going with this then you already understand how to do it so don't bother reading anymore. If you're still lost, continue on.

To start, look straight up with your flamethrower and start firing. Hold down your attack button. Now, jump. You should notice that you quickly return to the ground. Now, while in the air press and hold space. This will make you jump again.

After you land, immediately point your flamethrower directly under you. This will cause you to go incredibly high in the air.

Here is a quick video of me doing this:

Enjoy.
