At 6'5", I've had a hard time finding an ultralight solo tent suitable for me. I've been very pleased with my Hubba so far. When I pitched it initially, I was a bit concerned about how narrow the floor is. But numerous nights backpacking have changed my mind - it never feels cramped. Unless foul weather is imminent, I pitch it without the fly so I can see out the expansive mesh walls & ceiling. Breathability is excellent! I have not had it out in nasty weather, but the fly does come down very close to the ground. It's a snap to pitch, is extremely light, and takes up very little room in my pack. The only down side is it tends to sway in high winds if not guyed out. Overall, I'm very happy with this tent!
