i think my edges are too sharp, should i take them to a shop, detune them myself, or does it really matter

Sharp edges are good if you want to do more than just the park. But if not then just do some rails. They'll round off pretty quickly.

detune the inside edges of both skis under your boots with a file and sand paper if your serious bout rails, this will prevent cracked edges and quicken the time it takes to season your edges for rails

yah i just usually pretend i'm on a really wide fun box when i hit ice patches on my rail skis.....i think i'm gonna switch though and get a base grind on my fischers and start riding my msp's on rails, since they rock so hard off kickers.....then i'll just use my fischers for pipe and the rest of the mountain.....yeah
