Line 52:
A pyramid may also jump over one space containing one or more pyramids, so long as the top pyramid in the stack is of equal or smaller size. A pyramid may not jump over a pyramid larger than itself. A pyramid can jump in any of the six directions and can move to the start space, so long as it doesn't end the turn there.
 
[[Image:Ice Frogs jump allowed yes-and-no-01.svg|thumb|none|600px|''<big>This purple pyramid may not jump over the medium blue pyramid to the right because the medium pyramid is bigger than it. But it can jump over the stack on the left, because the piece on the top of that stack is the same size or smaller than the jumping pyramid.</big>'']]
A player may choose to place their pyramid on top of a pyramid of equal or greater size. It is not allowed to place a pyramid on top of a smaller pyramid. From one space, a pyramid may move over one other occupied space to land on the space after the occupied one. If this space was occupied, the player's turn is over. If this space was empty, the pyramid may move again to jump over another pyramid or be placed on top of an adjacent pyramid.

[[Image:Ice Frogs jump not allowed04.svg|thumb|none|600px|''<big>In this same situation, if there were a large piece on the ending space, the blue pyramid would be able to land on the large piece. Doing so would end its movement because landing on an occupied space always ends your movement, so it could not jump over the medium blue pyramid to the right of the stack.</big>'']]

Only the top most pyramid in a stack may be moved. With this it is possible to trap an opponent's pyramid on a space.
