Yeah, do a U Tube search on 'Mattress Surfing' - LOL

BTW - did you tell the guy in your sig photo you were going to do this just before you took the pic? His expression says it all.....

Maybe you should duct tape it to the back and prop the rear up with some hardboard - kinda a DIY 'Mattress Spoiler' could help the aero??

Go to Home Depot. Hire a couple of guys. Have them sit on it while you deliver it. That way you won't need to use ropes.
