    Which WBBB model for someone 6'4"?

    I'm not sure which model Standard or XLC. If a 6'4" person will fit in the standard I would prefer it for weigh and space savings

    You will fit in the standard, but the xlc will be more comfy.

    I started with the standard, used it several years. I am 6'4", and 280. I never really felt uncomfortable in it, or at least did not think I did....until I got the XLC. The XLC just feels better, more roomy and I do feel like I might have had a little shoulder squeeze in the standard, looking back. Sold my standard to a buddy who id 6' even, he likes it a lot.

    Looks like the single layer 1.7 XLC is only 3.5 oz. heavier than the Standard model.

    I'm 6'4 and the XLC is definitely recommended. You will not regret that purchase. The extra weight was worth it for me!
