Jumper Shoot, originally spelled Jumpershoot, is a mid-boss found within Kirby's Dream Land 2 and Kirby's Dream Land 3. It is very similar to Floaty the Drifter in terms of appearance, with the exception that Jumper Shoot has a foot, unlike the Drifter, and is much larger. Once defeated, it will give out the Parasol ability when swallowed.
Game appearances
Kirby's Dream Land 2
The first time Jumpershoot appears is in Big Forest. It has two attacks: one involving spinning like a top in the air and moving toward Kirby; the other having Jumpershoot kick off its sandal as a projectile. The sandal can be inhaled and spat out to fire back at the mid-boss.
