Real Brazilian damsels in distress in English and Portuguese, that's how things start off at Bound Brazil. Straight after that the tour pages explain that the thoughts behind this site are to do with struggling to be free, the power of bondage, and they tells us that this is more than a standard BDSM site. The site has a nicely amateur look and feel to it with sample images on the tour and sample videos, the content is set up with upload dates and there is a lot to see here.
The members' area looks pretty much like the tour, and that's kind of basic and amateur, but it holds link to all the content listed on index pages and in areas called Pictures on file, Videos on file, Clips on file and Guest gallery. The home page shows the latest updates much as you saw on the tour and the dates here suggest regular updates.
Looking through the menu in order I came first to Pictures on file and here there were 155 girls listed and then four special galleries including bondage mixes sets, outtakes and video galleries. You click on a thumbnail and find the gallery. These are set out on pages showing how many galleries there are per set; so the image content is arranged first by girls name and then you delve further and further in until you reach the first of each girls galleries. And there, finally, you find thumbnail pages with images clicking up to 800 x 600 in size where they are sharp and clear, though sometimes do come across as amateur in that there are flash guns showing shadows and the lighting is a bit homemade-style. Not an issue though, we came here for amateur BDSM and that's what we are getting.
And with Brazilian ladies don't forget. The site stays perfectly on niche with its sexy girls of all types; there are some advertised as BBW as well as many babes and hot chicks. And these girls are always bound. They are clothed, this isn't gratuitous hardcore BDSM, it's simply about women tied and gagged, bound, tied to the bed, in ropes or other restraints, helpless and in need of rescue. So, having seen these images, and I reckon there are at least 700 or 800 photo sets on this site, I headed to the next menu item, Videos on File.
There were over 200 movies here listed by month by year. Back in 2008 there were only eight videos, suggesting the video uploads started in November of that year, but since then there have been, on average, four or five new videos every month. Early videos are shown on the index pages with an icon, whereas more recent ones have sample shots. There are download buttons to press to get your movies, there are no streams and there is only the one option for each movie. I found older files were Flash, newer ones were zip files which then needed to be unzipped and played, the download speed was fine and movies ran for around 10 minutes on average. That's all well and good but the download choices are very limited here.
There are also a couple of hundred clips to check out and again these were in zip files or they were Flash files. Again not the most idea way to present movies but the downloads here were even quicker and all the video content covered the same on-niche subject. The Guest Gallery area held 12 videos which come from fans, I assume. Some of the girls here were topless, and the was about as naked as things got. However these were all still bondage and bound and gagged videos and the girls were as hot as the bound Brazilian ladies on the other pages.
The site is very simple, and this is, on the one hand, fine because it is an amateur site so although it may not be flash it is run with enthusiasm and cared for. But on the other hand your viewing choices are limited with the downloads, and zip files are not going to suit everyone. However, the quality is fine, amateur and a decent standard, with standard definition movies and some older ones being mid-range quality and newer ones being a lot better.
Navigation is easy enough, there are always back links to take you can to the index pages. There are no flashy things like slideshows for galleries though and you need to navigate these with back and forward buttons; again it's not a problem, it's just a bit old fashioned.
The top menu holds the same links as it did on the tour so you will have to head to the Members' area at times, rather than Home, and this menu also holds links to the model index. This is really just a set of face pics which enlarge one at a time when you click them. There are no details here, no information about from the About info from the tour and there are no interactive options. No rates, favourites or comments for example, though there is a links page and a contact page too.
Bound Brazil stays with its niche perfectly and if you want to know exactly what it is then read the tour info. It's not hardcore and nude, it's about being bound up and tied. The viewing options are very limited, there's nothing interactive really and the site has a very amateur feel design. But it all works, the quality is variable but everything is viewable and I had no technical problems. It is also very well stocked and updates are happening.
