Charles Albert is one of the worlds best yet unique boulderers. Charles ability is hard to define on paper due to his unique choice in style, with him notably climbing without the use of chalk, climbing shoes, and kneepads. In this style Charles is undoubtedly a master with no one repeating any of his boulders in there intended style. In terms of ascents Charles achievements are numbered with ascents of [Monkey Wedding](/climb/107/monkey-wedding) 8C/V15 and [Délire Onirique Assis](/climb/686/délire-onirique-assis) 8C/V15. Though Charles real achievements come in his first ascents, with him adding [La Révolutionnaire Assis](/climb/1547/la-révolutionnaire-assis) 8C+/V16 and [Hypothèse Assis](/climb/1549/hypothèse-assis) 8C+/V16. In 2018 Charles did the first ascent of [No Kpote Only](/climb/827/no-kpote-only) in which he proposed the grade of 9A/V17, however this was downgraded by both [Ryohei Kameyama](/climber/669/ryohei-kameyama) and [Nico Pelorson](/climber/674/nico-pelorson). Though these ascentionists did use shoes despite the translated name being "Bareback Only". In 2023 Charles did the first ascent of [L’Ombre du Voyageur](/climb/2845/l’ombre-du-voyageur) in which he proposed 9A/V17, as it took him 60 sessions. He also suggested it fetch a grade of 9A+/V18 given its done in Charles no kneepad and climbing shoe style.
