A canopy you can actually stand in your in-ground pool.
Vinyl liners tear. Plaster scratches. Fiberglass scuffs. Canopy Turtles solve all three so you can put a real 10×10 of shade right over the shallow end.
Built to never scratch the floor of your pool.
Vinyl liners
Canopy feet are the #1 vinyl-liner puncture risk most owners don't see coming. The contoured Turtle shell spreads weight across the liner so there's no concentrated pressure point. No nicks, no slow leaks.
Plaster & gunite
Bare metal feet grind into plaster and expose the rough concrete underneath. Smooth ABS Turtle shells slide cleanly across plaster and won't leave gray scratches behind.
Fiberglass
Gelcoat shows every scratch. The wide Turtle footprint distributes canopy weight and the smooth underside protects the finish, even after a full summer of installs and resets.
Shallow end. Sun tanning ledge. Beach entry.
Most families put the canopy directly on the shallow end or a tanning ledge so kids and grandparents can sit in 6-18 inches of water while staying out of the sun. The Turtles keep the feet from sliding even when the kids are climbing the legs.
The weight of the pool water pressing down on the Turtle feet keeps the canopy planted — no weight bags, no sand, no extras needed.

Will a 10×10 canopy fit over my shallow end?
Most residential in-ground pools have a shallow-end width between 8 and 14 feet — a 10×10 pop-up is the right size. Measure first to confirm two opposite legs can sit inside the pool while the other two rest on the deck if needed.
Will the chlorine damage the Turtles?
The ABS shell, stainless screws and lock washers are all rated for repeated pool-water exposure. Built to last for years. Rinse them off at the end of the season and they'll come back ready for the next.
Do I need to remove them after every swim?
No. The Turtles bolt onto the canopy legs once and stay there for the season — they don't come off after every swim. At the end of pool day, take the canopy down. If you'd like, pop the Turtles off the legs and stash them in the included mesh bag (the bag is for the Turtles only, not the canopy).
