    Well, Patrik, you should first check your grammars and spelling, but who am I to tell about that. :D

    Also, give some info about the powers. Is the teleportation jump free? How long does it take? Is it a spell-like ability? THings like that.

    Also, all exotic weapon profiency? That is...

    ...overpowered.

    -free all exotic weapons proficency??
    -wearing armor(feat from previous classes) does what? It's a bit strange for a person to be simply not able to put on an armor.
    -monk-like armor It just seems a bit far-fetched to me
    -bonus feat... how come? he specialises on jump-stabbing, not diversity of fighting techniques
    -warrior'r BAB. IMO this should clearly be rogue BAB.

    Also as he specialises on jump attacks you could make more of these and specify exactly how they work.

    Greater teleport/teleport without error at character level 10 is overpowered. So are the proficiencies. The class, however, seems underpowered (the 5th-level ability aside).

    You are also missing a few things, namely what exactly is the Circle Jump, and how much skills Night Jumpers get.

    My advice is to balance it out, add more spice to the class (history, what core classes would most likely take it, what purpose (if any) they serve), know how the actual class/prestige class format works, and to work on your spelling. This doesn't look very professional and says that you don't have the best grasp of the core rules.
