Actually if you had attempted it, you would find that the floor (the hull in this case) would be pushed inward and "bubbled" up on you. The floor, beside being there for comfort, spreads the paddler's weight out over a larger surface area. It also keeps the hull from pushing inward by pushing the load outward toward the larger tubes. Kind of like the rafters in a roof, but upside down. Make sense? Basically, I would avoid not using the floor.
