Delfect arrow-says you cannot deflect projectiles taht are too large, what if im huge size myself? is there a way to know what you can and cannot deflect?
Dragon style-lets you charge/run/withdraw thru allies occupied squares, my group are big on realistically functional. by RAW this would work in a crowded hallways...but how could i explain dragon style to my gruop as to allow me to do that? there is a chance they will just let it happen but often it needs to be explained.
Ape shaman+shaping focus-at level 6 (level 8 adjusted wildshape for apes with ape shaman) would shaping focus give me 5 uses of ape forms a day? (equivalent of level 12)
Combat reflexes+huge size wildshape-i have 15 DEX normally, with huge wild shape its 11, would this reduce the number of AoO's i can do while in wildshape? or do i still use my 15 DEX?
Im sure i have more questions but thats all i can come up with right now.

1. Per the rules, you would not be able to deflect other attacks if you were huge than if you were medium. It might be a reasonable house rule to allow the deflection of boulders or ballista bolts for creatures of huge size, but then again I imagine it's the force of those attacks rather than their size that makes them difficult to deflect.
2. You could explain it as sliding between their legs, or running past them using the walls, parkour-style.
3. Yes, but remember that Shaping Focus only grants a benefit to multiclassed druids, and only up to your total character level. So you would need to have 4 non-druid levels in order to get maximum use out of the feat.
4. In my games, you would use your current DEX of 11 (and so not be able to effectively use Combat Reflexes). However, as this isn't one of the listed things a DEX-penalty adjusts, other GMs might let you use your original DEX of 15 for this purpose.

You see now that could be a problem. But I Imagine it works the same way. You need a ten foot path to move as a large creature and even though you take up a ten foot space you are not actually ten feet wide. You double in size with every size you go up. so if you took up 3 feat of space, let's say at the shoulder, you technically only take up six feet of space as a large creature.

You could also flavor it like your allies pressing themselves up against the wall in an "Oh dear, here comes the gorilla" manner :)
As for the jumping tumble: You can use acrobatics to tumble during a jump, but they would be two separate acrobatics checks; bonuses to one wouldn't apply to the other.

mechanical question
Punishing Kick+reach+AoO's
often times when someone tries to get in range of a creature with reach, they eat a AoO
is it possible to Punishing kick someone, so they are forced to eat another AoO to get close again? the mechanics is i have to probably take a 5 foot step back...or maybe ready that punishing kick for when they first try to get in range.

It doesn't say it requires any kind of action. Just an attack and it can only be done once per round. So I don't see a mechanical problem. I have a character that just wears Gauntlets of giant fist. One of its abilities is it allows the wearer to make a free bull rush attempt every time it hits with an unarmed strike or natural attack. Often times creatures would give up and try a different method after getting shoved 20 feet back the second time.

i was more wondering the best way to mechanically make it work.
when they come within range of my reach...they eat a AoO...ok, they are in range now. hitting them with punishing kick is 5 feet, taking a 5 foot step back is another 5 so 10 feet.
or could i use punishing kick as my AoO? i havent read anything about if AoO's can be specific attacks or not?

Squeezing: In some cases, you may have to squeeze
into or through an area that isn’t as wide as the space you
take up. You can squeeze through or into a space that is at
least half as wide as your normal space. Each move into or
through a narrow space counts as if it were 2 squares, and
while squeezed in a narrow space, you take a –4 penalty on
attack rolls and a –4 penalty to AC.
When a Large creature (which normally takes up 4
squares) squeezes into a space that’s 1 square wide, the
creature’s miniature figure occupies 2 squares, centered
on the line between the 2 squares. For a bigger creature,
center the creature likewise in the area it squeezes into.
A creature can squeeze past a creature while moving but
it can’t end its movement in an occupied square.
