Yes, the spring is a length of thin piano wire, carefully enclosed in a a fold of the paper.
Upon reflection, I think that while an inflatable shape does offer the possibility of being retracted for parking, we usually have enough space for a 20' long car anyway, so for most people, folding will be more bother than it is worth. The inflatable raft has morphed into the RIB, which is not usually deflated even when on the highway.
