Not sure why you would want to get all decked out to go snowboarding when you are really trying to go kiteboarding. You should check out the O.R. surf drysuit or a pyro drysuit.

snowboarding/drysuit suit

Maybe, living on the west coast, you could go kiting/snowboarding all in the same day without changing your outerwear.
Appears like these drysuits are 'men's only' with the convenient front fly for the emergency pee.
Definately, looks like an interesting new concept/design for winter kiting and it would be good to see some consumer reviews.

Baggy. What's with the snowboard look. The jacket not being attached to the pants until the chest leaves a huge sea anchor to get caught up during bails, especially since the harness goes underneath. Fashion not function. Go with proven O.R. functionality.

Baggy = bad in the water. Poor swimming function will be the most notable feature after great above-water mobility. Forget about that suit in any waves; it's more of a liability. It's mostly fashion before function, in my opinion. Let the snowboarders wear it. Venting the hood won't help much with the bucketing effect that's sure to happen. There's a reason why seals, dolphins, etc aren't wearing hoodies and baggy pants, yo!
