Raw Strokes Review

Raw Strokes is a site that we've been wanting to review for a long time. It's a bareback site featuring lots of interracial action with black and white guys both topping and bottoming. But it's not exclusively an interracial sex site - there's plenty of white guys fucking as well as some black-on-black action. We haven't been able to get into this site until now, so I'm primed for a look at the guys and action.

The men sucking and fucking here are a who's who of gay porn. You'll find sexy ebony hunks like Jacen Zhu, Liam Cyber, Deep Dicc, Pheonix Fellington and Max Konnor. I saw more hung tops, a mix of white and Latin men like Marco Paris, Esteban Orive, Cade Maddox, Mateo Fernandez, Francois Sagat, Andy Onassis, Andy Star and many others. Not all of the guys are known performers, though - I saw several single-name guys and others I've never seen before. The men are generally fit with athletic to muscular bodies, although there are some slim guys, as well. There are lots of smooth physiques, but some are hairy, as well; there's a mix of clean shaven and bearded men, and the site doesn't shy away from tattooed guys, although there are plenty without ink. And of course there are lots of big cocks, both cut and uncut.

The action here is all bareback with big juicy cocks pumping raw butt holes. There's no story lines really, perhaps just a guy cleaning a pool when a stud comes out, sits in a chair and summons the pool boy over with a grope. Then the lad is on his knees gulping the man's big dick down his throat. But many of the scenes open with the guys getting right to it. Much of the action is in duos, but I saw a good number of threeways and even a fourway among the most recent scenes. As I said up top, there's a lot of interracial sex, but not exclusively so. In the latest 23 videos, there are 17 interracial fuck scenes, five white-on-white. and one black-on-black. The interracial action mixes it up with all kinds of men topping and bottoming, so we're not always watching black tops with white bottoms.

As far as cumshots go, Raw Strokes seems to favor internal cumshops with the top letting the bottom know that he's ready to unload. When his nuts are empty, and sometimes when they're not, he pulls out and we see a bit of cum leaking out of the bottom's ass or perhaps cum is still oozing from the top's dick. We often see the bottom pushing jizz back out of his pucker. I did see a few breeding scenes where the top pulls out and cums on the guy's well-fucked hole. And I saw one scene where two tops spunked all over a bottom's face.

Raw Strokes offers members 403 videos in MP4 format that are taken from 76 DVDs. The vids are only available to stream on the site, the older scenes playing at 732x412 and the newer ones at 950x536. Newest ones are also available in five speeds with the site auto detecting the best for your connection, however the older videos only come in one speed. The quality is generally pretty good, although the older ones aren't as crisp. There's a full-screen option, and most of the videos fare well; even the oldest ones aren't bad. And good news is that the vids are also mobile compatible. The videos aren't offered as downloads for members, however there is a store where you can buy individual scenes from $3.99 to $7.99 each. There's also a DVD link in the member area where you can buy full DVDs; these, however, are not downloadable and will arrive in the mail.

There are picture galleries, but this site handles them quite different from most other sites. Each DVD has a photo set, but they're not separated into scenes. There are 50 to 100 or so pictures, and I think they're screencaps, but they're good quality. When you click the DVD cover, a picture viewer loads with one picture and it goes through the selection of pics one at a time using a hands-free slideshow feature. The viewer starts at the first picture in the series and refreshes with a new one about every five seconds; there's no way to slow it down or speed it up. You can't save the pictures either. And while there are forward and back controls on the viewer, these will move you to the next DVD gallery and not ahead or back in the current series.

The episodes aren't dated, so I have no idea how often the site updates. However two of the latest scenes feature Daniel Hausser, a guy who has just started filming porn within the last couple of months, so it looks like the site is updating currently. Also, if you remain a member for six months, they'll lower your monthly rate by $2.79 for up to three months.

Are there any problems here? The non-recurring month membershp costs $15 more than the recurring monthly option. I'm not a fan of the navigation, it's cumbersome. The site likes using arrows, so on the video listing page, you'll see a red arrow on the left and right side of the page and this will move you backwards or forward in the inventory with 30 to 36 videos per page. I prefer page numbers that allow me to move around easily. Likewise, the picture galleries use a viewer with a hands-free slideshow rather than letting you select individual pictures from a thumbnail gallery. And finally, I'm never a fan of sites that charge extra for video downloads, although this has become commonplace.

Raw Strokes is packed with lots of sexy men featuring both well-known performers, newcomers, and lesser-known guys or up-and-comers. And the men are diverse, offering us Caucasian, black, Latino, and Asian men sucking and fucking in mostly interracial scenes. Not every scene is multiracial, though, and even when they are the bottoms and tops mix it up so there's lots of variety. I was looking forward to reviewing this site, and my only disappointment was that I couldn't download anything. While there are some navigation quirks, the men and the sex are hot, and the over 400 exclusive videos will keep you jacking for a long time.
