A site for men who like sweaty bareback sex, by men who like sweaty bareback sex, that's what Dudes Raw is promising us on its tour. 100% condom-free action that is exclusive and available to stream of download at your leisure. There are weekly updates, group action scenes, horny amateur guys, photo galleries and a model index. With around 200 original scenes so far you've got a lot to see and a great time to be had here.
Dudes Raw is all about its content, it's not about selling you a network, or feeds, or extras. It prides itself on its content and it delivers on its promises, and that's all you need from a decent site. You start off at a home page that keeps you up to date with news, with what and who is new to the site, and which also links you to a few peripherals, like a pay per view theatre, if you want to go that way. It also includes a neat top menu which will take you to the heart of the matter, the videos.
I counted 194 when I was in the site and that's pretty impressive as the site had only been up and running for around a year. There are weekly updates and it looks like these are on target at the moment, another piece of good news. When you click the Updates tab, to get to the videos, you find 16 large sample pics per page. These are showing some of the more intimate moments from the video they represent; the ass licking the rubber free penetration, the cock sucking. It's hard to know where to head to first (there is a categories page which arranges the content into 12 sections), but click a pic and you find the same good viewing options on each video page.
Actually, what you find on each video page is this: A Flash stream that starts automatically. The default speed was set so that the movie buffered smoothly and survived ok at full screen. To the left of it you find your other viewing options, including another choice of Flash stream quality (low), and MP4 download and a WMV download; I noticed that some scenes were in parts, so you have two files of, say 170 Mbs to take rather than one larger one.
Movies come with a set of statistics, for those who are interested, things like date added, number of images and ratings, and there is also some information about each scene further down the page. It's one of those set-ups where you have everything on one page, and that includes your images. These are set out in thumbnails beneath the videos viewing and, after some neat posed shots, they take you through the action in individual images that open up to 950 x 712 in size, and show at a medium quality. They open one at a time in the same window which is a bit of a bind, but there are full files of each set to download if you'd rather view that way.
The action stays on target and that's for sure. It's bareback all the way and there is plenty of the promised guys cumming on each others asses and then getting back to fucking that wet ass. Lots of hardcore, oral and what makes it all the better is the variety of guys. These are amateur looking ordinary guys of various ages, but mainly Id say in their 20s. They are blonde, tall, dark, smooth, hairy, you name it, but they are all up for raw and raunchy bareback. And that, after all is what Dudes Raw is all about: plain and simply it's Dudes having Raw sex in exclusive movies that are presented in a simple and effective way.
Ok, so wed like some more gallery viewing options but that's because were picky. As for the other technical matters, there was little to complain about here. It's very simple with your choices of viewing: two downloads and two streams, three file types and easy buffering. Whats also nice is that the rates and info are all on the same page as the scene and gallery, everything for each bareback adventure is in one place which makes navigation easy. The top menu is clear and to the point, with links to the episodes, models, categories, news, feedback and support.
Ah ha, Feedback. Well, this is a kind of messaging service between you and the webmasters. You can send messages, but it's not a comments place. The news page keeps you up to date with the recent additions to the home page in text format, and possibly any other site news you need to know. And the model index is crammed with 195 topless guys. Actually it's not crammed, it's evenly set out and loads quickly, and you get a whole wall of topless, bare-chested amateur guys to select. It gives names and photos only, but that's ok, you click a guy you like the look of and you find a page listing his scenes. There's not a lot of info about him here either, though there may be in the video viewing page, and you only need one click to get to the movies and galleries your chosen guy appears in.
So, it's all very straightforward at Dudes Raw, and that is a good thing. There is no messing around, nothing pops up or gets in the way, and everything runs smoothly. You can get slightly involved with your rates and feedback and you should have no technical troubles here at all.
What separates Dudes Raw out from other bareback sites is the fact that it uses some pretty hot amateur guys in its videos, and there are a lot of them. The filming and productions are fine, decent quality and they don't let you down. You get what the tour promises you and you have weekly updates. But I keep coming back to the models and how fresh and natural they are. These guys are to be seen to be believed, good amateur performances in hot exclusive movies.
