Yeah I'm 17 and they're my main ski right now. Super light and buttery. I'm only about 140 pounds but I'm pretty tall at 6'1". They aren't as fast as some of my friends' skis but if you wax them every so often they fly. They spin like crazy too. I'd like to upgrade to a bigger pair, although I prefer smaller skis. I'll still keep them around just for catching mini shreds all over the mountain. If you're a full-sized rider and not a grom, mini shreds and spins really are what they're best for.
