What's the water temp there? I use wetsuits also, right now I'm wearing a 4/3 w/ 2mm booties. The coldest water I've dealt w/ was around 54 deg. It was cold, but bearable. You have to have booties though. Even when the water is in the low 60's your feet get cold. It's not like surfing where you move your feet enough to keep them somewhat warm.
