    This pond is as good as it gets. You got everything. A "cliff" jumping spot. A deep end. A nice swimming area. You got the bridge to dangle your feet over and chill. You got a waterfall/river/stream area. You got the deep pocket of water right before the waterfall in the waterfall area to maybe sit in or it could be be cool for kids. You got the other area to sit in and be in the water chest high or sit in a chair and be chilling with your feet and a beer in your hand area, maybe with a parasol. You got the ankle-shin deep area. You got the dock areas to sit and chill or sun bathe. You got everything for everyone in every situation. The only thing it's missing is a water slide.

    Want help moving big liners like that? Use commercial blowers. Blow air under it, acts like a hovercraft. We use it on rubber roof membranes if too big. Usually we can just flap it and get a little air under and move it. Blowers would help you even more.

    • @royormonde3682
      @royormonde3682 Před 2 lety

      Ya but roofs are flat, I doubt it would work on uneven surface, especially ones with extremes in elevation like this....the air will just blow out the side of the first level never reaching the lower parts. There's nothing smooth there like a roof.
