i have the hennessy asym (not the ultralight) which has the same dimensions I believe (just heavier fabric) and i'm 6'2 and 195lbs.

the web-site says it fits 6'0 and 200 lbs for the backpacker and 250lbs for the regular asym, but i find mine very comfortable despite going over the height limit a little bit.

this is my first post by the way, i've been lurking since getting my hammock a month or so ago.

I believe your the exception. Most people including my self can't do the smaller models if close or at 6". Im 5'11 and can sleep in my exp asym but I feel scrunched up. I realized the difference in space when I tried another hennessy.

yeah, i suppose i don't really have a basis for comparison. i'll certainly try out a bigger model when i get the chance.
