Skimmer Options

[EWH]

I'm building a large rectangular pool with 16" travertine coping and debating on the pool skimmers and lid locations. We will have an 8" section of grass off the travertine before our decking starts. I'm trying to avoid having the skimmer lid sit in the grass between the two decks.

I have seen some 90 degree turn skimmers that keep the lid on the 16" coping but can't find details??

Surely the best option is to do away with the silly 6 inches of grass
