liner install help?

Hi. I have a Johnny Weismuller pool, 24' x 52" tall round, about 6 years old and have to replace the liner due to the ice damage this past winter.
My last liner had a few wrinkles that always annoyed me.
I have installed the new one, with one inch of water in it so far, and it seems to have even more loose material than the last one. I worked the wrinkles towards the sides. I am worried that when the pool is filled, the bead won't stay in the track and there will be an excess of vinyl along the top.

My question is, should I start over and remove some sand from the bottom?
I always felt that was my mistake in the original installation. Here's a photo:

I do IG liners for a living, but have a bit of experience with AG liners.

I think you'd do best to bowl the floor, as you surmise :cool: You also might want to lessen the cove at the bottom of the liner.

As long as you redrop the liner on a warm, sunny day, it will be able to stretch into the lower pool - without those wrinkles.

Let me know if you need more assistance on this, I'm here almost every day.

Thanks for the advice, waste.
I took out the liner, removed some sand from the base and from the coves, reinstalled it, and began filling it.
It looks much better now!
