The Atlantis STD is the smaller of our two dedicated exercise pools. This is a pool designed for serious exercise, with all of the benefits you would expect from a high-end swimming machine.
The Atlantis STD exercise pool has been designed for use either inground or semi sunk or above ground. If you look at the step end of the pool, you will see that it can be accessed from three sides, and is totally at home in a fully sunken environment. Equally it has been designed so that if you only semi sink it, then only the top part of the pump compartment needs to be removed for maintenance.
Both the Atlantis STD and Nautilus STD are equipped with 3 x 4 HP pumps, which provide 2200 gallons a minute of clear, turbulence-free counter current. There is no rough swimming, and no air bubbles in the water to cloud your vision. There is, however, a contrasting acrylic swim line in the pool floor to swim in line with, and all four jets are backlit to provide what looks like a landing strip to swim towards. In other pools, vision is so poor and turbulence so great that swimmers loose their way in the pool and end up hitting the sides.
The depth is also fantastic - 1.5m means there is no chance of kicking the bottom or steps, and its superb for hot water aerobics and streches. If you want to put on some music, you can hear it reverberate through the pool water from the built in iPod dock and sub woofer (optional), and at night the water edge lights and 2 deep underwater lights make the pool an explosion of colour. Both the Atlantis and Nautilus are the result of 10 years of research and development and are both great to swim and easy to own.
The Atlantis STD is designed to provide room for adults and children to swim as intensely as they choose, with counter-current jets invidually controllable to suit.
Hercules™ Thermosteel Cover Upgrade
If you're considering sinking or semi-sinking your Riptide pool, you may wish to consider upgrading to the new Hercules™ Thermosteel cover. The cover has a stainless steel ladder frame, inserted into the oversized polystyrene core, to give the cover additional strength and heat-retentive properties. The cover increases from 70mm to 90mm thick, helping it to withstand weights of up to 300kg - this means it will easily handle family members walking across the surface of the swim spa when covered. Hercules covers are 7cm on one side, and 9cm on the other, which helps rainwater run off, rather than letting it puddle on the cover or seep through into the spa.
The folding, two piece cover which comes complete with the Atlantis is secured with childproof, adjustable, lockable straps along all four sides, and can be enhanced with a Cover Basket lifting device which enables easy and wear-free removal of the cover.
Optional Music System
A worthwhile investment can be to include the optional iPod dock and swim spa music system. The system includes four, hydraulic popup speakers (pictured right) and an integrated, waterproof iPod dock. Also fitted to the spa frame is a substantial sub-woofer, which helps bring your music to life, and provides excellent sound levels which should even be suitable for a garden party.
The weatherproof, UV stable exterior panelling is designed with both vertical and horizontal slats, to make a more interesting cabinet. The panels are attached using stainless steel fittings, and each cabinet is complimented by the inclusion of a contrasting heavy-duty vinyl cover.

Easy to Maintain Filters
The Atlantis is fitted with a 2x100 square foot, top-loading filter system and integrated weir, which captures larger floating debris before it reaches the filter itself, along with a Corona discharge Ozone system. Unlike many spas on the market, Riptide filter housings are simple to take apart for cleaning, and to remove the filters for their regular maintenance and replacement.
Stainless Support Rails
A single stainless steel support rail is supplied as standard, above the jets, on all Swim Spas except Nautilus and Atlantis. To provide additional support for aerobic exercise in your pool, you may wish to add extra rails, which may be fitted to the left or right side. In the case of the Atlantis and Nautilus pools, we have available a set of three bars, which provides support rails for both the sides and counter-current end of the spa.
Swimming Pool Bike
Our Swimming Pool Bike offers a unique means of exercise, allowing you to cycle in the low impact environment of your Riptide Pool's water.
The bike is constructed entirely from Nylon and ABS Fibreglass, meaning it's guaranteed to never rust, even when used in salt water spas. The patented Pool Bike features a four paddle system which is fully adjustable, allowing you to vary the workout intensity according to your needs and desires.
Step Options
We offer a variety of options for colour-matched steps based upon your needs, from the simple and stylish DuraSteps, to the fantastic SwimSpa 4xL steps (pictured right) which come equipped with double handrails and non-slip, extra deep depth top step for safety.
