Before
<p>Charles Albert is one of the worlds best and most unique boulderers. Charles ability is hard to define on paper due to his unique choice in style: he typically climbs 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 the the same style as he climbed them.</p> <p>Charles is notable for his hard first ascents, for example <a href="/climb/1547/la-révolutionnaire-assis">La Révolutionnaire Assis</a> 8C+/V16 and <a href="/climb/1549/hypothèse-assis">Hypothèse Assis</a> 8C+/V16. In 2018 Charles did the first ascent of <a href="/climb/827/no-kpote-only">No Kpote Only</a> in which he proposed the grade of 9A/V17, however this was downgraded by both <a href="/climber/669/ryohei-kameyama">Ryohei Kameyama</a> and <a href="/climber/674/nico-pelorson">Nico Pelorson</a>. Though these ascentionists did use shoes despite the translated name being "Bareback Only".</p> <p>In 2023 Charles did the first ascent of <a href="/climb/2845/l’ombre-du-voyageur">L’Ombre du Voyageur</a> for which he proposed 9A/V17 after spending 60 sessions to complete the problem. He commented that he thought it would be 9A+/V18 for the style he did it in, without shoes or knee pads, but suggested the lower grade for an ascent in a more typical style.</p> <p><a href="/climber/498/lucien-martinez">Lucien Martinez</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>In Font, many times I saw Charles Albert do things so out of this world I would have called them impossible without having been a witness.
