Ah, I've heard them called "beach entry", but never "zero" entry...

I think most of the newer pools will have this feature...

Large pools, possibly. But smaller, backyard type pools like mine the slope would be was way to steep.

The question was about rec center pools... (ie like Fenney...)

The zero entry takes up a lot of space. It was considered for the resort-style pool being put in at the First Responders Rec Center, but was shot down because of the space issue.

The new First Responders Rec Center was suppose to have one but last minute someone changed it to a regular pool which is a shame. I was really looking forward to the zero entry pool. Why ask the question if you have no plans to implement things.

World renowned philosopher Vanilla Ice wrote “ Drop that zero and get with the hero”. That is my contribution to this thread. It’s what I do. Glad I could be of assistance.
