I spend a lot of time on a board training and not so much actually on the real stuff itself. I think I am quite weak in my thighs especially driving off of high feet. Does anyone have any good advice for improving strength without bulk as i used to run a lot and it has taken me several years to lose size in my legs. Am thinking squat thrusts and high reps, but am sure someone on here has a good routine ?

Just be very cautious about knackering your knees doing things like pistols, esp if you have any history of injuries.
Am liking the wobble board advice as the wife bought one recently for ankle recovery. My knees don't enjoy the pistols too much and am not sure they are that effective for climbing due to the linear nature of movement ? but will probably be proved wrong here. I agree that doing moves requiring leg drives is very important so will take that advice on the chin and try and set something along these lines; just wanted some exercises though to tag on to a session to make sure i am properly nailing the legs.
