Im thinking about getting this board but im fairly new to boarding. Last year I rode a 159 rome aritifact and it was good but I had a really hard time spinning. I plan to spend more time in the park this year what size board should I get I have a size 11 boot and I am 5 10" 175 lbs?

I'd suggest a 155 or 157. I'm 5'11" 168lbs and I prefer 155 for park and 157 for all mountain. The 157 is soft enough to do it all and has a bit more snap for ollies but the 155 is just so more fun on rails.
