Need help deciding on a diving board. Finishing up construction soon.
See print below. Fits the description of a Type-2 pool, which will allow me a 6-ft passive or active, or an 8-ft passive. Open to S.R. Smith or Interfab. Some random thoughts I have...
I have two small kids that will be the primary users for the foreseeable future. I feel confident that I can train them to be safe on either. (Perhaps when they become teenagers I will take board out or replace with dive platform)
It’s just difficult because there are no showrooms or way to have any idea what they are really like from looking online. Thanks!
- 18x36 Roman (so really 18x40)
- 8 Ft deep (probably actually 7’6”-7’8” of water)

- Does my “Roman-end” slope seem to be the same as a normal rectangular pool’s would be?
- Do I need 8-ft board to overcome this slope and depth?
- Would a 6-ft look too small on this size pool?
- Would the 8-ft stiffy have similar bounce to the 6-ft springy simply due to the adds length?
