A Scout gets to make ambush attacks if the move at least 10'. Would a Tiger Claw Sudden Leap of 10' (a swift action) qualify?

Yes, it only matters that he moved, not how he moved (though mounts won't work). This would allow you to move and still make a full attack.:)

Keep in mind that Sudden Leap has a pre-req of one other Tiger Claw manuever, so this may delay getting that manuever if you were accessing it by a feat.

Since we're on the subject of scouts, I've had two questions that I've been meaning to confirm for a while.

1) The movement errata for scouts; does the scout just have to move at least 10' away from the initial square, or must they also end their movement 10' away from that square? I've generally done the latter more conservative one for my PC, but the rules seem to only denote the first interpretation.

2) Short-range teleporting (Dimension Hop, anklet of translocation) count as movement?

Why wouldn't a mount work? Errata or FAQ? I don't remember reading that in the original description.

The Scout has to move under his own power - getting Bullrushed or having a mount move under you isn't enough. IIRC, it's in the Errata.
