If you fit in a 6, you probably will be ok in the Ventus.
I am 5'11' and found length was not an issue for the
6. I have sat but not flown the 2a and it did not
seem narrower but may have less length. My suggeston
is to find one to sit in if you are considering the
purchase of one. Good luck.

I fit comfortably in a LS6(had one for a year) and
I am 178 cm/5'10'

how would a LS6 cockpit compare with a Ventus 2a
in width and height


As far as I remember (flown a Ventus 2a twice in September,
LS6 last
Saturday and a lot of other times) there is a little
more space in
the LS6. The Ventus 2a didn't have an adjustable back
rest, so I
had to add a cushion behind the parachute.
