wetsuits

IM heading to warmer waters in a couple of weeks. I usually where a 5/4 surf wetsuit. THis will be far too thick for where i am heading. I have been advised though that the water is a bit too cool for just boardies and rash vest. i have a 3mm scuba wetsuit (full length) and i am wondering what people think about scuba wetsuits for kitesurfing? I know they are not built for that purpose but are they so lacking in fleibility as to make it impractical? - i will go out on the water with the 3mm before my trip (when the sun is shining) to test. But was just wondering what other people thought.

Any feedback much appreciated.
