It was amazing to visit the Endless Pools factory near Philadelphia in the United States. Watching the pools being hand crafted gives a real sense of provenance. So much work goes into preparing each pool, from hand cutting the panels to testing all of the components before they are shipped. It is true to say that no pool will ever be the same.
Our thanks to John Lee and his team for giving us the guided tour and allowing us to test all of the pools. Personally, my favourite was the Performance Swimming Pool, it was an amazing swimming experience with a smooth current. I could even do back stroke without going off station. The Elite Pool made me feel a bit shy as my swimming didn’t match the quality and power that it offered. However, a triathlete would enjoy this one.
