> Remember to store > it semi-inflated.... Can you say more about this? Why do you store them semi-inflated? Mainly it's easier to re-inflate. These guys are self-inflating; there's a soft foam core that expands and pulls air in through the valve. If I've stored it rolled tightly up it takes a lot longer to reinflate when I use it again. You always top it off with a few breaths anyway... I usually store them with just the valve open and not rolled up. So far as I know storing it rolled tightly up doesn't necessarily degrade it...
