Smooth floor pad if I dish out an agp?

[AndyPTx]

Forgive me if I can't find this anywhere else.

I have a 24' round 52" steel wall agp and the liner needs replacing.

I read some time ago about people dishing out their pools a little, and have since 'looked forward' (?!) to needing to replace my liner, to do the same.

The questions I can't find, or answers to, are:

- I wonder how a floor pad fits the curved and sloped floor of a dished section in a round pool?

- And how do people's heels NOT dig into the slope and push divots into the sub-sand as they walk down the slope to the deeper part?

I'm thinking about dropping it down to a max of an extra foot. Max.

Any help?
You're stars.
Thank you!

Dishing out bottom of AG?

Digging a deep center

We Are in the planning stages of Putting in a 24 foot round pool. I would like to have a deep center dug out but I’m wondering if doughboy pools are the only ones I can use for this purpose. Are the walls of manufacturers pools strong enough that they won’t collapse? Thanks

round AGP is going in tomorrow and friend suggested making center deeper

My friend suggested making the center of the pool a few inches deeper than the rest of the pool. Kind of bowl it out instead of having a flat bottom. He said it will give more depth for bigger kids and the dirt will naturally settle there for easier cleaning. Any Thoughts? I am afraid...
