Hello!
First time setting up a pool, Intex 15’ prism pool. I know what I am doing probably isn’t the BEST way to do it but I am trying to get it good enough.
I got the pool within an 1” of being level, I was happy with that. I put foam under the pool for soft padding (photos included). Once it got almost all the way full the legs on the low end punctured through the foam and the pool became 3 1/2” off level. I know I shouldn’t of put the legs on the foam in the first place I just got lazy near the end of setting up.
I drained it and put some extra pavers I had laying around under the legs. First question i guess is from the pictures does this look like it will hold up fine? And some of the legs of the intex pool are bowed in like in the picture. Once I pull it out plumb, the one next to it slides back. I was filling it back up but turned off the water until I can get some advice. Thank you in advance

What you did in pic #1 by cutting the foam out for the paver to fit looks fine. But the other two pics with the legs about to slip off looks like a mess about to happen. As soon as you get people in that pool and the water starts moving/shifting, the poles could drop off the edge of the paver(s). Whether it's enough of a drop to cause the pool to collapse, I couldn't tell you. But I'm afraid it's not ideal and for safety reasons I would recommend the pavers be flat, stable, with the poles centered as much as possible. Sorry, I know it's a lot of work.
