The copper spur uvl2 has an xl version that will work for you. I'm 6'3" and I have a lot of extra space. If you're looking for a 1 person, ultralight version then post in r/ultralight. There are a few out there that might work for you.
Great tent, but plan to replace the stakes. I bent two the first time I used it. Tossed them for some MSR dirt daggers.
Big Agnes Cooper Spur UL2 Long and UL3 Long are 96" long. IME, UL2 works best for 1 person/squeeze 2 people and UL3 works best for 2 people.
Although they may not qualify as ultralight, Big Agnes UL2 XL and UL3 XL have 96" of interior length, and they are quite lightweight for freestanders.
I’m the same height as you and tents I’ve had that have worked for me are as follows Big Agnes copper spur 2 XL Locus gear Khufu grande Tarptent scarp 2 Luxe hex peak F6 Durston x-mid 2 (but only in tarp mode as not enough room with the inner)
the stakes are the worst part of that tent, and tbh that’s saying something but they’re really bad. I’ve had croquet wickets give me more confidence. The zippers also give me a “what if” feeling but have held up tremendously. Generally, I love it, immensely, otherwise. ETA: I’m short so none of this applies to the post, my bad
I’m 6’4” I have the Big Agnes Copper Spur XL 2. The XL is longer and wider.
6’4” 260# backpacker here. Look at the ULA Catalyst. For sizing I went with the large returned it and went with the XL. Tent is Big Agnes copper spur 2 XL. Feet still hit the bottom of the tent but not by much. Pad is the therma rest permaloft. 78” long and 26” wide. Bag is western mountaineering 6’6” bag. That is not the mummy bag. I forget what they call it but you will see on website. I take a chair, that’s my luxury item, when I put together my setup I felt that I almost had to pay double for big items that fit properly. If I was 5’4” and skinny I would have chosen different, cheaper, lighter things. Good luck. Hope this helps. Oh yeah and the grail water filter. Give up some on weight but in my opinion worth the convenience.
I’m 6’10” and they make [this](https://www.bigagnes.com/collections/backpacking-tents/products/copper-spur-ul-two-xl) same tent in a long, which is what I own, I’ve even got 3” to spare.
Also in CO. [Big Agnes Copper Spur UL2](https://www.bigagnes.com/collections/backpacking-tents/products/copper-spur-ul-two?variant=45805172850937) is a solid 3-season tent. Also if any component ever breaks, just drive to the BAP store in Steamboat for repairs (usually same day, and free). I’ve been completely overwhelmed by their products, attention to detail, and customer support. You’re also supporting a CO owned and run business. Wait for sales for the best price. Edit: added link.
I'm 6'05" and this is the tent I went with. Spendy? Yes. But eventually you get tired of not fitting in a tent, you save your pennies, and you buy it. You what I don't regret? Buying this tent.
