Waterproof Gloves?

Neoprene??

Exactly. Seems like some 3mm gloves would work great (they worked great when I was still cold-water surfing )

MLD eVent gloves are great because they weigh less than the stuff sack that came with my poncho, and yet they're big enough to hold the rest of my rain gear -- a pair of DriDucks pants.
