Default Canopy limits - How tall are you ???

Sitting on the floor, back straight up against the wall - using a ruler on
my head, my gal marked off my (sitting) height with a piece of tape.

Floor up to tape mark: 38 1/2 inches ...almost one meter (0.98)

Standing ...6' - 2.5"
Sitting .......3' - 2.5"

Add a headset and I'm just over 40 inches - sitting.

Mmmm ....Annette!!

Hallway at the top of the stairs - swing legs around ...skipping two stairs,
stand up. Piece of cake!

Mmm ...cake.
