I found a Phase 5 Oogle at a very nice price, but im a little concerened. I am 5'10" and 170 pounds and my dad is 5'11" and 200 pounds. I have some experience surfing and i want to buy a board that will be good for doing some tricks for me. And my dad has never been surfing before but wants to learn. So would this board be a good choice for us? What i am worried about is that it would be too big for me and not allow me to do tricks on it? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!!!

I think you will be good, the Oogle has a 2-1/4" or so fin you can change it out to a smaller fin to loosen it up for tricks.

trying to find a board that does it all is really hard.. if you want a trick board - take a look at a walzer....
