Default Performance Glider for tall people

Holger Weitzel is the tallest glider pilot I know (I'm 6'0" and he
makes me look short). He flies an ASH26E for the roomy cockpit.

You might also want to consider a two-place ship like a DuoDiscus. I
fly a Janus, and it is quite comfortable in front and back.

Hi,

which european medium/high performance glider would you reccommend for
tall people?
I am ~6.5 / 199cm and looking to buy something like a Discus but
apparently cockpit is supersmall

Any suggestions?

Many Tks
