Tis is what I would have done.

1. Either tan it then freeze it.

2. Left it pickled and froze it eihter would have elemiated the problems yopu could have.

I would set it out and watch it, help un roll it or use cold, running water to thaw it faster, unrolling it as you go. Takes maybe 30 minutes.
