I've spent a lot of time being confined to training on a moonboard which has been great fun.

I'm after suggestions of board style problems in and around North Wales, Dorset and the Peak to have a look at when I get back while I'm feeling good on that style.

Cheers all

Pillbox Wall and Rhiw Goch would fit the bill in North Wales. I'm still getting to know the bouldering in Wales so I'm sure there are more good options.

There are lots of peak lime crags where board climbing is pretty transferable even if the shapes of the crags are a bit more varied. Rubicon is a good example.

GOP Cave bouldering is like a steep 60° board. Pretty basic square on movement. 

Also agree with Pillbox and Rhiw Goch as suggested above.

As already suggested, North Wales has loads, across the grades. Problems on the main block at sheep pen. Harvey Oswald at the pit, Ogwen.. Wonderwall, Crafnant. In fact, an awful lot of Welsh venues have at least something that has board style movement.

Outside of your geographical remit, but the steep side of  The Bowderstone is the most board style outdoor climbing I've come across.
