Scratch FS WRS edges thinner than Scratch FS? Confirm?

I know I read this in a previous post at some point, but it was never really confirmed...anyone know this for sure?
I eyed them up in a store against a few different skis and it seemed to be true. If so, wouldn't it be smarter to get the regular fs if you're riding a good amount of rails?

I'm gonna have to drive back to the store to look at them again...this is bugging me. I mean, I would think if they did thin them out, that it'd be mentioned in the specs...

GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHY DOES EVERYONE THINK THIS!!!!!
Last years PC's have 2.5mm edges, the SAME as the Ar6's and T-Halls.
THIS IS HOW RUMOURS get started. Check your facts!

i doubt they thinned them. especially cause its a park specific ski and there really is no regular fs. theres this years equivolent of the sprayer fs which would possibly be more logical to have thinner edges because it has a heavier core, is cheaper, and is the kinda lower quality version

they have normal edges, they just don't have the thick edge that a lot of companies are putting on their park skis now.

I believe Armada said that they used a DIFFERENT edge that the ones the used on the ar6 etc...making it not as burly for rails...
...but that also could be where the rumor originally started.
The site claims they both use the 2.5 inch impact edge...

what im saying though is that there wasnt a just an "fs" it was either an "fs wrs" or "sprayer fs"
