At Pau Hana Surf Supply, quality and sustainability is integral to our mission. We design our paddleboards for durability, ensuring they withstand the test of time and reduce environmental impact.
After your session, give the board a quick rinse with fresh water and let it dry before storing - especially if you’ve been in saltwater.
Store your board in a cool, shaded place, out of direct sunlight. If possible, keep it flat or on its side using proper board racks.
A little care goes a long way - treat it well and your board will stay solid, smooth, and ready for the next paddle.
Made with an ultra-light woven drop-stitch construction - a lightweight, high-strength inflatable build that packs small and inflates rigid. Thousands of internal fibers create a stable, durable structure that holds its shape and delivers consistent performance without added bulk.
Performance Metrics
The Stowaway Lite feels steady and approachable from the first step on. Its balanced width and volume create a calm, predictable ride that helps paddlers relax, find their rhythm, and enjoy the water without fighting for balance. This board isn’t about pushing limits - it’s about making paddleboarding feel easy, comfortable, and accessible in a wide range of conditions.
Whether you’re paddling close to shore, cruising a calm lake, or heading out on a mellow coastal session, the Stowaway Lite stays composed so you can focus on the experience, not your footing.
Smooth, stable performance for relaxed cruising, casual paddling, and long, easy sessions.
Wide and buoyant enough to stay composed when wind or texture shows up, helping new and intermediate paddlers stay confident.
Inflates quickly and packs down small, making it ideal for road trips, apartments, boats, and airline travel.
The snap-in fin setup provides dependable straight-line tracking while remaining easy to turn and control in tight or busy areas.
Stable from the first step
The wide, balanced shape makes this a stable inflatable paddleboard that feels calm and predictable underfoot - perfect for beginners and easygoing sessions alike.
Simple to pack. Simple to paddle.
The Stowaway Lite rolls up small, sets up fast, and travels easily. No roof racks, no complicated gear - just inflate and go.
Built to last, not overbuilt
Woven drop stitch construction keeps the board rigid and reliable without adding unnecessary weight, so it holds its shape and keeps paddling smoothly season after season.
The Stowaway Lite is built with Pau Hana’s advanced woven drop stitch construction, designed to strike the right balance between stability, durability, and easy packability. Thousands of high-tensile fibers connect the top and bottom layers, giving the board a firm, confidence-inspiring feel once it’s inflated.
This construction isn’t about chasing extremes. It’s about creating a stable inflatable paddleboard that feels predictable and easy to trust, whether you’re learning the basics or settling into a long, relaxed paddle.
The result is a travel-ready inflatable SUP that’s quick to inflate, simple to transport, and solid underfoot from the first step on.
Designed by a Pioneer. Built for Everyday Adventure.
The Stowaway Lite is designed in California by paddlers who’ve helped shape modern paddleboarding from the start. Not to chase trends - but to make getting on the water easier, more approachable, and more fun.
Its travel-ready design packs down small, carries easily, and still feels solid once inflated. Everything you need fits into one bag, so setup stays simple and the focus stays on paddling.
Built with durability and thoughtful materials in mind, the Stowaway Lite reflects Pau Hana’s belief that good gear should last - and work hard wherever you take it.
Paddleboarding, made easy. No shortcuts taken.
