your typical choices include cedar .. the ever popular and economical pressure treated and then you have exotic hardwoods. Its really a matter of preference. You cant use a tongue and groove type wood unless its going to be covered. There are under deck water handling systems available if thats your concern. HOpe this helps--Josh
