-==Wall Strafing==
+== Wall Strafin g==
+=== Purpose ===
-Running parallel to a wall while holding strafe (so that the player 'leans' into the wall) results in a reasonable speed boost. This occurs because the strafe & forward velocities combined are greater when applied in a straight line. Normally, the player would strafe to the side meaning they are travelling off-line, but the wall holds the player on a straight path, so the player gets the extra velocity and retains the direction of travel.
+A reasonable speed boost
 Wall Strafing is a traditional movement skill and is a habit for a lot of people.
 ==Ramp Sliding==
 When a player hits a ramp or other incline at a fast speed, the player will naturally glide up the surface without losing much speed. Players can direct their slide by using the strafe keys and the mouse in a smooth gliding action.
 ==Sharking==
 Sharking, aka Water Strafing or Speedboating, is the act of gliding across the surface of a body of water. Sharking can be performed by simply jumping onto the surface of a body of water with jump held. The majority of the player's horizontal velocity will be retained as long as the jump button is held. Sharking players can turn in a manner similar to Bunnyhoping while retaining speed. I.e. turning is achieved by letting go of the forward key, then using the strafe keys & the mouse to change direction.

 ==Rocketjumping==
 Purpose: A soldier can fire a rocket at a surface near oneself to elecit a strong knock-back effect. This gives the player the ability to fly through the air to reach high areas or cross maps faster, at the cost of self-damage. Rocketjumping has turned the soldier into one of the most interesting and versatile classes. <br>
