- First Impression
Navigating to ClubStroke.net is at first confusing. If it weren't for the picture at the top of a naked, glistening dick with the caption "Your WebMasturbator Hard at Work" (which, cute, but not the kind of cute I look for in porn), I wouldn't really know that I was at a porn site. The guest's homepage is dressed in the muted grays, greens and whites one would normally find at a human resources website. It's not very boner-inspiring. Scrolling down, there are more pictures that give away the fact that it's a paysite, but in my opinion, when I visit a paysite I want to get slapped in the face with porn. At this point, I don't even know what the hell kind of porn this site is offering me. - Navigation
Logging in, it's a bit more obvious that this is a pornsite. In fact, the only three design colors on the page are white, gray and red--still muted, still too minimal. The layout is very simple; two-thirds of the page is updates, the remaining one-third is coming attractions (so I guess the two-thirds of updates are cumming attractions? Ba-dum-ssss). Similarly, navigation is pretty simple; everything I need is right there at the top. There is some minor confusion: there's a link for the studs, which gives you their vital stats. And then there's a link for bios, which gives a biography of the studs. But, like, actual written biographies, like you see their handwriting and everything. But no pictures. I'm not sure why there's a disconnect here and why the two aren't linked to each other. -
- Content
Something that's really rocking at Club Stroke is its content delivery. Users can stream the entire video online or download it in more ways than I can count. The entire video can be downloaded in MP4, WMV or 3GP files--or watched in those formats as well. Additionally, videos are also broken up into 2.5 minute snippets available to play or download in the same formats. Pictures--of which there is original content--also have a wide variety of delivery. Pictures can be downloaded in a zip file with either large or small pictures or viewed in a slide show-y format. -
- Guys and Sex
Surprisingly, the videos are hot. I say this is surprising because it's just guys jacking off and if I want, I can watch that in the mirror when I do it in the bathroom. But there's a quality to the videos, or perhaps a character in the men, that makes the videos really hot to watch. It helps that the guys are, for the most part, hot hot hot. Club Stroke has done a great job of providing a diverse array of models from which to choose. There are some twinks, some muscle-y frat-type dudes, some bulkier guys, white guys, black guys, Latinos…it's a veritable rainbow of dick. More often than not, these guys jack off with complete abandon and ultimately, that's why it rocks. What doesn't rock so much is the photo content. While it's admirable that the photos are original content, it's just really hard to make photos of guys jacking off hot. Its just a picture of a guy holding his rigid dick. -
- Value
Club Stroke kind of knocks it out of the park with bonus content. There are two pages of bonus videos (I'm not quite sure how they're bonus, as it's just more videos of guys jerkin goof) and 13 pages of bonus photo sets (see above). Despite the abundance of these pictures, these are definitely hit or miss (there's one photo set that's just a guy with tattoos, smoking; he's not even hard). There are some bonus video feeds as well but these are also a bit superfluous. Club Stroke wins with the abundance of bonus content, but the quality isn't always there. -
- Bottom Line
Despite a really awful site design, Club Stroke is actually a really hot paysite. Kick back, grab your cock, and do it like they do on the screen. -
