Need stairs for a non-flat AGP floor

[MITBeta]

Hi Everyone,

My in-laws love to use the pool, but climbing the ladder to get in and out is getting challenging. I would love to buy some stairs, but my pool floor slopes somewhat steeply (maybe 6" in 12 feet) towards the deepest spot in the middle. Most of the stairs I see are flat on the bottom, like these:

and the ones that are more ladder-like, like these:

get accused of being flimsy.

Can I use a PVC pipe or board under to toe of the flat bottom stairs to make up for the slope? Are there other solutions?

Thanks!

When I read this the first thing I thought of is using a composite deck board to help with the slope. The hard part will be securing the board to the steps. Lets see if anyone else has any ideas.
