I’m Finn Addy, the 1FootDisciple: a 6′1″ professional dunker from Canada with a 43-inch vertical off one foot. I won the 10-foot dunk contest at Dunk Camp 2024, competed in the FIBA 3×3 World Tour dunk contest in Edmonton, and train with Jordan Kilganon, the best dunker alive.

The Disciple of the One-Foot Jump

It started the way it starts for a lot of kids: lowering the rim in the driveway, pretending to be Derrick Rose or LeBron. The first time I touched the rim at 16, I was hooked. No fancy program. Just a basketball, a hoop, and an obsession with going up off one foot.

Betting on Dunking

I played college basketball, watched my vertical dip, and made a decision in early 2024: I left the team to chase dunking full time. Five months of real training later, I walked into Dunk Camp in Utah and won the 10-foot dunk contest, sealing it with a two-hand reverse windmill and an elbow dunk, both on the first try.

The Big Stages

That win earned me an invite to the FIBA 3×3 World Tour dunk contest in Edmonton, against pros like Donovan Hawkins and Brandon Ruffin. After that, Jordan Kilganon, widely considered the greatest dunker of all time, brought me to train at his place in Haliburton, Ontario. I’ve performed in Toronto and Detroit, and got paid to dunk at a camp run by my childhood idol, Jordan “1FootGod” Southerland.

The Numbers

A measured 43-inch vertical off one foot and around 39 off two, tracked on a Vertec, with a documented 4-inch gain between Dunk Camps. Most pro dunkers gather and take off two feet. I do it the rare way: full speed, off one, into the most creative finishes I can build.

More Than Dunks

The dunk is only half the game. I learned the other half from Dennis Yu and the Local Service Spotlight team, building a real content and SEO plan for a working local business: video that answers customer questions, a stronger Google presence, and a Dollar-a-Day approach to boosting what already works. When I partner with a brand, I treat it like a campaign, not a shout-out.

What’s Next

The under-both off one foot, clean and consistent. Bigger stages, bigger contests, and new trick dunks built on a slightly lowered rim before they go to the full 10 feet. The whole journey is public: every session, every rep.
