Making Waves: The Rise of Swim-In-Place Pools and Dynamic Swim Environments

June 11, 2025 • Pool Magazine • Season 4 • Episode 17

In this episode of Pool Magazine Podcast, we talk with Phil De Tournillon, co-founder of Current Systems and creator of the River Flow pump, to explore one of the biggest trends in modern pool design: the rise of swim-in-place pools and dynamic aquatic environments.

Today’s homeowners aren’t trading traditional pools — they’re enhancing them. With features like adjustable current systems, lazy rivers, and interactive water zones, pools are becoming more versatile than ever. De Tournillon shares how River Flow technology adds movement, wellness benefits, and year-round functionality to backyard spaces. We also dive into how automation and smart control systems are shaping the next generation of immersive aquatic design.

If you're designing for performance, play, or pure relaxation, this episode is packed with insights on how to bring motion into the modern pool.
