I,just purchased a Hexon 2.4 in 11' and it is awesome. I am 6'1" 250lbs.

The 11 foot Argon (one of the first he did) has been my go-to since I got it.
Add my vote for the 11-foot argon from Dutch. My ridgeline is slightly over 83 percent, more like 85 percent of length. I'm 5'9" and about 165 lbs. The value of a larger hammock like this one over, say, my Hennessey Expedition, is that the larger hammock is easier to find a sweet spot. That is, I can find a sweet spot in the Hennessey, but there's less room for error. At least that's been my experience. I like both my hammocks but I rave about the comfort of the argon.
"...the height of hammock snobbery!"
Add me to the list ..
Not exactly sure why it is but I find my sons 11' Dutch NylonD much more comfortable than my WBBB ..

I have Dutch's Hexon 2,4. It was an upgrade from my previous 9.5'. The extra length seems to help with ridge calf. If I lower the head end and scoot that way, so my head is closer to the end, and lay at more of an angle, I can almost completely get rid of the calf ridge. Since I use a pillow under my knees to prevent hyper-extension, I don't notice any calf ridge at all. I think I'm going to experiment with a mini-spreader at the foot end.
