About Ben Hopkins

I have been an athlete for as long as I can remember, competing in sports like baseball, soccer, and basketball. I got my first dunk at 14 and enjoyed doing it as a fun challenge, but it wasn’t until May 2023 that I began training specifically for dunking.

After a few months of self-guided training, I joined Jordan Kilganon’s Jump Master program in August 2023. Since then, I have added nearly a foot to my vertical and developed a much deeper understanding of dunk technique, performance, and athletic development.

My goal is to share the knowledge and experience I have gained, including the challenges, with others who are passionate about improving their athleticism. I aim to educate, inspire, and entertain throughout my journey.

I have always had a passion for content creation (I have 2 old Minecraft YouTube channels), and I am excited to have found a space where I can combine that creativity with something I truly love. I have even created the Dunker Spreadsheet, which includes a ton of data about dunkers all over the world!
