Bleaustone training range is prime. https://rockrun.com/products/bleaustone-training-range-dual-slopers
Indeed. In both orientations too. The only downside may be that you can easily wrap thumbs underneath so they become almost pinch-like, but the benefit is that they’re fairly compact compared to larger open-handed holds.
I have some of these, think they are good:https://www.hardwoodholds.co.uk/store/p166/Board_Slopers.html
Problem with slopers on a board that steep is they either have to be massive, or you can pinch them. The ones on Ondra's wall all look huge, same for Stefano Ghisolfi's board. https://www.instagram.com/p/CIDpmCFHcLa/?igshid=1qgwj4tonyja4And the larger holds all seem really expensive.I have some from Hardwood which are very slopey, and the only way of using them is to pinch. Worth saying it is definitely possible to drag lots of holds on that sort of angle. It may not be the most natural way for you to use them, but this is training after all.

Usable on a 45 but hard. Especially moving between them! Also weirdly for plastic versus wood, a lot cheaper than those Bleaustone ones.
Currently looking at this on a mate's board that a few of us share. Making some small volumes might work well, you can then put on a sloping hold and use as a sidepull or undercut or a sloper with a little thumb catch. Good for compression problems.Also, bought some of these and think they're great for a 30 board, or placed on volumes on a 45.https://www.holdz.co.uk/products/smooth-slopers-chewed
I find that i have to do that on a load of my crimps too... have you tried the bluestone pockets?
Also you think its weird that they're cheaper than plastic? Wood holds seem way cheaper
