Proper Slope/Angle for a raised spa with a "reverse negative edge, infinity edge"

Proper Slope/Angle for a raised spa with a "reverse negative edge, infinity edge"

I am wondering if anyone else some feedback on the proper slope/angle for a reverse negative edge spa that they have installed and if they have pictures. My negative edge spa is 18" out of the water and the spa wall is 12" thick. At this point, I am leaning towards a 1.75" Slope from the outer edge of the spa to the inner edge of the spa. I would like to know what slope others have used for their raised disappearing, negative edge, infinity edge spa.

I am looking for the cleanest overflow for a more modern effect, yet I also want the spa to be functional as a "Sit & Spin" entry spa.

I appreciate any feedback and pictures that might help me decide.

**Below are some examples of what I am trying to achieve**










Thanks,
Matt

OH man those are PRETTY! It almost looks like the are angled IN towards the middle and that makes sense. That would make it a "clean" overflow with little or no splashing.

I hope this bump will get it in front of some eyes that might know.

Thanks Kim, you nailed it spot on, I want that clean overflow. Tomorrow is Shotcrete day. They will be here at 5:15 in the morning. I am excited that we are the first shoot of the day and it will still be "cool". By cool I mean in the low 90's. I will post pics tomorrow.

You should be fine with the slope you are planning
