I doubt that Crandalls would produce a windbreak 6 feet tall. Mine top out at about 4 feet and get so heavy with fruit that they fall over.

Glendale Gooseberry would probably make it. Mine gets about 7 feet and would get taller I think, but I prune them to keep them about 6 to 7 feet. They are very spiney and the fruit is fair.
