If you search this forum you will find numerous discussions of Baltic birch. It has become the gold standard, so to speak. Personally, I think that is primarily due to the structural integrity (number of plies, quality of wood used in the plies and no voids or plugs). I have seen some descriptions of it that specify water proof glue(type 1 phenolic) and others that specify water resistant glue(type 2). I believe that some in this forum have used the water resistant and not had any problems. In reality, the frames seldom spend any time submersed in water and if they are they dry out relatively quickly after the event. In my mind the structural integrity is the more important characteristic. Good luck in your search.
