When deciding which platform is right for you, start by determining:

1) What top size do I want? Choice of 20" x 24" Standard top or 24" x 32" Track Start top.

2) Which style platform do I want? Choice of Single Leg design or Dual Leg design.

3) Which style anchor do I want? Single leg designs have a choice of Quickset or Paraflyte anchors and Dual Leg designs utilize Competitor Dual Leg anchor.

The Competitor style platforms utilize a twin legged design that slips in and out of the Competitor Dual Leg anchor assembly, with new Dual-Wedge design. Quickset style platforms utilize a single pedestal design that slips into single Quickset anchor socket, with new Dual-Wedge design and Taper Lock base. Paraflyte style platforms utilize a single pedestal design that is bolted into the Paraflyte anchor socket.

Paragon platform designs listed above also come in two heights. Full Height and Low Height (Varsity). The platforms are also available in Standard and Long Reach styles, based on gutter design needs.

Ordering platforms:

1) Determine maximum height of block above water surface according to the ruling body that governs your swim programs

2) Confirm the pool water depth at the block installation location.

3) Determine "A" dimension. This is the desired height of your platform over the water surface minus the deck-to-water level measurement.

4) Determine the "B" dimensions. Desired set back from the vertical pool wall. These dimensions vary according to the platform height and style you select. Care should be taken to insure the desired anchor installation location is clear of obstructions such as gutters, deck drains, diving stands, etc.
