Aquasport Semi inground Pools 

Picture
888 89 POOLS
The Aquasport 52 Pool wall is assembled one panel at a time, each interlocking with the last. Each panel is made of thick extruded aluminum, and measures 4″ x 52″. The columns, or ribs you see in the wall, are where each panel lock together. Each panel has two channels, a receiving channel, and a bead. By joining together these panel’s, sliding the bead of one panel, into the receiver of the other channel, the wall forms a super strong vertical column every 4 inches.

So not only are the wall panels themselves thick, but by locking them together you create a wall that just won’t buckle. With all pools, your pool only lasts as long as your wall.

Aluminum Pool Walls
It has been proven over the years, that no pool wall lasts longer than an aluminum pool wall. They do not rust and actually become stronger as they get cold. It is also a fact that thick extruded aluminum interlocking panels make the strongest pool wall. These pools are best suited for semi-inground installations.

Framing Of The Aquasport 52
The bottom track of this pool is almost 4 inches wide (aluminum), with a ninety degree angle added for strength. Each length of bottom track is bolted together using aluminum plates thicker than your pinky finger, and bolts thicker than your index finger.
Once the pool is assembled, it could literally be picked up and moved if you had enough people.

Top Rails Of The Aquasport 52 Pool
The top rails are ridged extruded aluminum. Compare that to the resin (cough *plastic) pools of today. You have to make a really thick piece of resin, if your going to compare it to the strength of real metal. Metal that by the way, will be worth something in 30 to 40 years.
All above ground pools, or semi inground pools rely on a cheap piece of plastic to receive the liner bead. The Aquasport 52 top rails have bead channel built into them. When the top rail is extruded at the factory, the bead channel is formed as part of the aluminum top rail. This means you will never have to take the pool apart to replace the liner.

The top rails of this pool are exactly like the coping of an inground pool. That’s why you can pour a cement deck, or install patio block over the top rails if you want.
​

Aquasport 52 Pools Sizes
All the Aquasport 52 pool models have a 52 inch wall. That goes for their oval pools, and their round Pools. Even their rectangle pools, but those go by another name, and have a deck as part of the construction.

Best On Ground PoolsWhen you get to this class of pool, they are often called “on ground pools“, rather than, above ground pools. The Admiral’s Walk, Gibraltar, and Kayak pools, are all rectangle pools, and come with an end deck, a promenade (walk around) deck, complete perimeter fence, liner, plumbing, filtration system, pump, fold up security stairs, and in pool ladder.
The thing that really separates all these pools, and puts them in a class by themselves, are their walls. Traditional above ground pools have a thin coil roll out wall. Gibraltar uses a steel slat interlocking panel to build it’s wall. Kayak uses a wood wall, with thin Aluminum cladding on one side. The Admiral’s Walk uses a thick extruded Aluminum slat interlocking panel to build their wall.
Admiral’s Walk Versus Gibraltar Versus KayakIt’s only when we compare the systems of these three top manufacturers, that a clear winner rises to the top. I know the weak points of all these pools, as I have worked on all of them. To be clear, I have never been a Gibraltar, or Kayak dealer. But, I have removed them, repaired them, replaced liners on them, replaced walls on them, etc…
The WallsIn my opinion all three have super strong walls, but the Admiral’s Walk is best. In all fairness, the other two walls start out strong. But, over time, steel on the Gibraltar pool rusts and thins, especially around the skimmer, and return hole. The Kayak’s wood wall rots out over time too. Kayak has added a thin Aluminum cladding to its wall in recent years, but it still comes in third for best wall.
Pool DepthThe Admiral’s Walk wall is almost a foot taller than Gibraltar. So it offers a lot more swimming area. The panels are 52 inches long. The Kayak pool has also gone to a 52 inch wall, but because it is made of wood, I almost didn’t even include it in this review.
Gibraltar, and Kayak will offer to include a deep end. The Admiral’s Walk does not offer this option. The maker of the Admiral’s Walk (Buster Crabbe / Aquasport Pools LLc), made the decision not to offer this option for a reason. To many people get hurt!
Having a hopper / deep end / extended swimming area (for insurance purposes), takes their otherwise 40 inch pool, and adds another 36 inches (3 feet). People mistakenly think, the so called deep end is deep, and dive into a pool that’s only six feet deep. There have been many lawsuits over the years, and worse, many people injured for life. It’s just not safe. Safety is why you will never see a diving board, or a slide with an on ground swimming pool. No one should ever dive into an above ground, or on ground pool.
The DeckNow, all three of these manufactures use Aluminum decking. For years Gibraltar used wood decking, and you can see how that would be a problem. But it was actually worse than you can imagine, because their deck is part of the structure of the pool. So when the deck rotted, the pool blew apart. It got so we would not put a liner in a Gibraltar pool, if it had an old wood deck. But like I said, they smartened up a few years ago, and went to Aluminum.
Kayak offers a few deck configurations that you can’t get from the Admiral’s Walk, or Gibraltar pools. Conversely, The Admiral’s Walk offers a double end deck option the other two do not offer.
One thing worth mentioning, is that the Gibraltar pool now has an Aluminum deck, and a steel wall pool as previously mentioned. The two metals don’t play nice together. They have only had their Aluminum decks for a few years, so there have been no incidents, but I see trouble down the road in the way of galvanic corrosion. I suppose this could be offset by good electrical bonding (grounding), but we shall see.
The Admiral’s Walk decking is actually stronger, It is mostly factory welded and comes in four big sections. The other companies use fasteners to build it on site from many, many pieces. If you don’t have a dealer in your area, shipping costs and lack of builders could be a disappointment.
Deck CoatingGibraltar and the Admiral’s Walk carpet their Aluminum decks. Kayak uses a non slip paint. While carpet will eventually wear out, paint is going to chip and peal. The Admiral’s Walk gives you the choice of Blue, Grey, or Brown carpet.
Pool Perimeter FenceThis is pretty much an aesthetic issue, as all manufactures make a strong fence. But, as you can see in the image above, our fence is designed to offer a gentle nudge not to sit on it, and is more decorative than the other companies. Also, every spindle is thick Aluminum, and has a thick pearly white coat.
Conclusion Would it surprise you to find out our pool is actually cheaper than the other two companies? We offer a better wall, better fence, stronger decking, more decking carpet colors to choose from, a taller pool, and if you asked me, a better looking pool overall.
Don’t take my word for it… Google each brand name with the word “reviews”. Everything I wrote here is based on 30 years of my personal experience. Admiral’s Walk Interest Form
