For the real dunk you should probably be at least 6–9 inches over the rim, depending on your hand size.
Subsequently, is it easier to dunk with two hands? Developing a one-handed dunk requires less vertical ability than a two-handed dunk, and, for most players, jumping off of one foot from a running start makes it easier to jump high enough to dunk.
Beside above, how do you do a two handed dunk?
You asked, why can’t I dunk off of one foot? Mainly the quads and calves. Players who can just barely dunk from both legs usually cannot do on the fly one-legged dunks. This is because the lifting or leaping power is reduced when using only one leg. Try this yourself when you measure your vertical.
Similarly, should I dunk off one foot or two? So for most people, the best option for jumping high depends on whether they’re moving or not. If you’re jumping from a stationary position, two feet can get you higher off the ground than one. If you can take a short step before jumping, you might be able to get a little bit higher.Many of the newer rims are breakaway, and will snap down if you grab onto it. If you want to have a chance at dunking, you should be able to snap the rim down like this with some consistency. Careful, though: If you grab the rim but can’t get a grip, the momentum of your body could cause a violent spill.

Is it hard to dunk?
If you can get up high enough, dunking is pretty easy. Same with hitting a home run. Some people simply can’t hit or lack the strength to hit a ball far enough to get out of the park. Once, however, you’ve passed that threshold, it’s not difficult to do.
