I am going whitewater rafting in a few weeks, I'm expecting the water to still be pretty cold, can anyone suggest a good light weight long john to wear under my wetsuit? Is one material, wool v polyester, etc, better than others for this use? Any suggestions would be very appreciated.

poly/capilene would be the best for your use since it dries so much faster than merino. Capilene 1 bottom is the ticket for sure.
