There's lots of different kinds, but the more layers of fiberous material bound in the resin, the better IMHO.

kirkll uses a really hard and heavy material for I beam risers, pretty sure he calls it G-10..**update.. I looked up G 10 and it seems to more like fiberglass than phenolic?? so I think it would be stiffer than phenolic??
