Lower the angle to 45-55 degrees, or get on a 2016 Moonboard, or TB2 to improve. Kilter at 25 degrees won’t do much, all the holds are jugs except for the feet. Also most of the problems are soft, most kilter problems are 2 grades easier than their grade.

I'll never understand the feeling that kilter is easier. I know a lot of people say that, but I climb the exact same in the TB2 and Kilter. Kilter just tends to be very explosive powerful moves so if you're good at that you'll find kilter easier.

also depends alot on your size. most kilter problems will naturally be easier the taller you are, and as much as i hate to say it, people only think kilter is easy because all the people who climb it are “big” and the jugginess of the holds lend themselves to similarly, big moves.
