A quick Google of average heights for men in China shows 172cm.
As I understand it hight is strongly heritable, but only given adequate nutrition.
The gifts of a market economy are leading to people reaching their full potential.
As well as pollution etc of course.

Lanshan 1 Pro arrived today, quick once over looks very good, tidy job and finished well.

I can confirm it’s a single skin with sewn in bathtub and bug screen, SMD Lunar’esque

I’ll be up the park tomorrow for a quick pitch and I’ll get some photos while I’m at it.

First impressions are good though, my first Chinese shelter (apart from the X-Mid) so wasn’t sure what to expect.

But that only refers to the size of the inner net and doesn't take account of vestibules/pitched size of outer.

You'll have to go and complain in Reddit for that... :D but one other comment was that it also didn't cover the internal volume, which affects to livability.
