6'0 Cambiã AIS: Adaptable Inflatable Surface
Cambiã is the gear you didn’t know you needed - because it refuses to be just one thing. It’s an Adaptable Inflatable Surface that can roll from water days to camp days to “let’s see what happens” days without missing a beat. Lounge float, dog dock, camp bed, bouldering pad, sled, or casting platform - Cambiã shows up cushioned and ready.
With a textured traction pad for grip and comfort, plus D-rings for securing gear, it’s a lightweight, durable go-to for water lovers, climbers, and campers who think outside the box (and live out of one).

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.

Cambiã is built using drop-stitch inflatable technology, with thousands of internal fibers connecting the top and bottom layers. This allows the surface to inflate into a rigid, supportive platform while still remaining lightweight and packable.
The result is a surface that feels solid when you need it - on the water, at camp, or wherever you set it down - and easy to transport when you don’t.

Performance Metrics
Cambiã isn’t about speed, glide, or tracking - it’s about how it shows up across different moments. Think of this less like performance paddling and more like how the surface behaves when it’s floating, loaded, moved around, or used as a base for whatever the day turns into.
A stable floating platform for lounging, stretching, kids, dogs, and gear organization.
Best in mellow flow and protected areas - more “basecamp” than “whitewater.”
Great for protected coastal hangs and sandbar missions. Keep it out of heavy surf.
Not applicable (it’s a surface/platform, not a paddling hull).

IT DOESN’T PICK ONE JOB
Float, dock, bed, pad, sled - Cambiã adapts.
RIG IT YOUR WAY
D-rings make it easy to tie down and customize.
LIGHT + PACKABLE
Easy to bring along when space matters.
Cambiã’s drop-stitch construction gives it structure and stability without locking it into a single purpose. It inflates firm enough to stand, sit, or move around on comfortably, then packs down small when it’s time to head out.
- A stable, supportive surface across different uses
- Lightweight and easy to transport
- Reliable feel whether you’re floating, camping, or setting up a base
Designed to be useful, not precious.
Cambiã exists for the kind of people who don’t plan every minute - and don’t want gear that only works in one lane. Inflate it, throw it in the mix, and let the day decide what it becomes.
Why I’ll Never Fish Without the Cambia Again
After a month fly fishing through Florida’s inshore waters - from Crystal River to the Everglades - the Pau Hana Cambia AIS proved to be one of the most versatile pieces of gear we brought. It packs down small but inflates quickly into a sturdy, multi-use platform we used for everything from beachside lunches and floating breaks to an impromptu nap spot after long days on the skiff. The Cambia is an instant chill spot on land and water. Its lightweight yet rigid design made it feel solid and stable, and it added a surprising level of comfort and convenience to our trip. For anyone tight on space but wanting to elevate their experience, the Cambia is a smart, essential addition.
