The ladder was in the other side of this and I just realized it’s making the pool lean. Got wonky and I didn’t catch it until people went up and then the ladder comes forward and put pressure on causing that boot to do that. I checked and it’s about 1” off. Glad I caught this now and I took out the ladder. No one in until I sort this out. Any thoughts?
Pool level but leaning

nothing posted, try again - give us a view of the whole upright head on and from the side
I assume those legs are on patio blocks or similar?
When a pool is built and filled it needs to be able to "spread out" and shift as necessary. I'd say that leg got stuck.
See if you can pick up on it and get it to "kick out".

I just took a level out and on the top rail between each upright is within 1/2” on either side of the upright in question.
Now this is the three uprights across from it in order. That’s strange it’s like in the out. I wonder if I loosened rails and adjusted then retighten then. Everything is in the track and appears by eye good.

I have a landscaper scheduled the 14 of July to come backfill and build a rock border around everything.
See if you can do what I described above.
You can see the plastic is pushed under from it trying to slide outward. Pull up on it some, it may go.
Will do. I'll try that at lunch. I will put my arms under each side and give it some good pressure. Appreciated.
I lifted the upright and it did pop out a bit. Probably 1/2” or so. Put a thin blade under under and worked the dent out as best I can.

Yes, Thank you. I'm being extra cautious since it's my first build and only been up a short time. My wife thinks I worry to much but I want it to last and be safe. Would it be good to do a quick lift on all the uprights, or just let it go?
Mine did the same thing, and I knew ahead of time to expect things to move and spread out. For whatever reason, the plastic foot got caught.
I think I went around and gave a tug on everything to make sure it was all settled.
I don't blame you for worrying, it's a big investment.
