Do pools wobble?

[Bookworm]

We just put up a 18' x 48" Intex Ultra pool. We dug the ground level, etc. It's about an inch out of level but pretty good. There are two poles that are a little crooked and I'm not sure how/if I should address that. (they are each about a third of the way around the pool from each other)

When my kids and their friends (around 10 years old, average size) swim across it, I see some wobble. I can see the top of the frame wobbling and the liner. I guess the last part makes sense because it's a soft liner, but I guess I just didn't expect it.

I think I'm being paranoid. It's not just going to flop over on the first day after being just barely out of square, right?

And how can I straighten out the posts? (Or do I need to? They are like a 3 degree angle, but noticeably not perfectly straight.)

My previous Intex and Summer Escape pools always had some wobble.

It's amazing how he top rails of my current, traditional AG pool stop that wobble.

To straighten, you would have to some how lift up and then move the rail.
But since pools are so heavy, it would require something like a 4x4 on a car jack to slightly lift the top rail and with that is a risk that it will slip or damage something else..

Water is fluid and as long as you have someone in the pool disturbing it, the pool soft sided pool will wobble to some degree.
