It is hard to tell the construction of the barefoot water ski suits from the website info that I saw. I do remember seeing some wetsuits at Surf Expo several years ago with built in flotation. In effect they looked like an impact vest integrated with a wetsuit. They should provide the warmth of an impact vest only more so than a shorty anyway. They may also provide at least as much flotation. If the padding is heavy enough they may even provide the impact protection. I would say to give it a go and see what you think.
