A floating bed includes a body having four edges, including an upper edge, a lower edge, and two side edges. The body is optionally made from foam materials or foam rubber materials, such as polyethylene (PE) or ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA). The body has first and second surfaces that include a plurality of transverse concave and convex ridges that are optionally evenly distributed. Each concave ridge on the first surface optionally corresponds to a convex ridge on the second surface, and each convex ridge on the first surface optionally corresponds to a concave ridge on the second surface.

The invention relates to a slider and a method of making the same. The slider comprises a bottom plate, an inner core, and a skin plate. The inner core has a bottom surface and a top surface, and is made of a foamed plastic. The bottom plate and the skin plate are bonded to the bottom surface and the top surface of the inner core, respectively, to form a laminate, and thus the inner core is sandwiched between the bottom plate and the skin plate. The bottom plate is a multi-layer structure, comprising a foamed plastic layer, an adhesive layer, a fabric layer, an ink layer, and a composite casting layer, which are laminated downward in order from the bottom surface of the inner core. The skin plate is also a multi-layer structure, comprising a foamed plastic layer, an adhesive layer, a film layer, a corona treatment layer and an ink layer, which are laminated upward in order from the top surface of the inner core. The invention provides a comfortable, lightweight and safely used slider, having the enhanced strength and toughness, with both a lower manufacturing cost and a simpler manufacturing process, whose design pattern is not apt to be worn off.
