AS3 PRO vs AS3, padding difference

[Beflar 55]

I know they put in a few extra mm of padding on the AS3 Pro because of how stiff it is.  I was wondering did they add the extra padding to the AS3 version as well?  I'm looking at getting the AS3 but I know the carbon is not as stiff as the AS3 PROs'. 

 

Also while I have you here...  Does the AS3 carbon wrap all the way around the bottom like the AS3 PROs'?

The ankle padding is very similar between the two. The AS3 has the same level of soft padding (comfort foam) as the AS3 Pro but has slightly less high denisty hard foams. The AS3 carbon does not entirely wrap around like the AS3, if you look inside the skate there is a plastic midsole sitting on top of the shell, under that you can see a seam.
