As we shift into fall I want to extend my paddling season and my stroke repertoire in colder water. Currently I get away with a simply gortex jacket, it cuts down on the wind but does nothing to keep water out.

What should a person consider regarding neoprene vs. latex cuffs, tunnel vs no tunnel, breathable vs non breathable etc.

Thanks in advance, grant
