Gay porn site review of English Lads at Gay Porn Police

English Lads

Introduction:
English Lads boasts the home of fit and sexy english lads. From lean twink like guys to muscular hunky types, English Lads features men ranging in age from 18-24 years. From first glance, there’s a lot of content inside English Lads. Solo scenes to duos and trios can be found. For those who love their British chaps, they are certainly one of the best.

Tour Claims:
100% exclusive videos and photos is the claim when you purchase a Membership with English Lads. From the Tour we get a good indication that their catalogue is quite large. I like the fact there are no autostarting flash videos on each page and that surfers have the choice to view the previews if they like. Plenty of high quality images also provide for a great preview of the English Lads library.

Members Area:
The Members Area of English Lads is quite easy to figure out right away. Although, I wish they had have made some of the text a bit larger. The main menu runs at the top of the page and takes us to Home, Top Lads, Newsletter, Forum, Contact Us and Help. Under the  header we have the latest photos and videos as well as what’s coming next and even a chance to win some of the models’ clothing. Thumbnail links take us to each video or picture gallery. Below this we have a search engine where Members can look for what they want by choosing Photos Sets, Videos, Models or even Stats. Next we have the Top Lads and links to their videos and photo sets. Following is Random Favorites to finish off the home page of the Members Area. I will say that the large red text cloud that shows up over the latest videos an picture thumbs is a bit annoying. Some might find it convenient perhaps though.

Models:
18-24 year old twinkish and muscular english blokes is what you’ll find here. The men are certainly not hard to look at and I would imagine there are enough different types of men here to satisfy most tastes. I found most the guys here to be pretty well hung and seemed to be having a lot of fun. You can see that a lot of them are amateurs as they tend to be shy at first. All part of the appeal if you ask me though!

Action:
There is a good mixture of solo as well action scenes inside English Lads. Not a large amount of trios, but the duos are plentiful. From indoor to outdoor scenarios and lots of cocksucking, rimming and fucking are what you can expect.

Videos:
As of July 30th 2009 there are 175 full videos inside English Lads. There are a few options for navigating to them. You may get to the newest episodes from the Members Area home page of course, but Top Lads will take you to where there are links for surfing the entire catalogue. Once on the Top Lads page you are given the option to choose from videos or photos in a tab layout above the table. On the Top Lads page there are 10 preview images linkable to their respective pages. If you wish to view the Top 100 or Top 175 videos and photo sets, scroll to the bottom of the page and click the appropriate link. All videos are presented on one page – whether it’s the Top 100 or Top 175.

On each video page there are several options for viewing the videos. A 16 minute edit, as well as the full length scenes are featured with these download and streaming options:

Medium quality Quicktime format (.mov) – 540×304

Medium quality Windows Media format (.wmv) – 540×304

Large quality Windows Media format (.wmv) – 960×540

The medium quality videos are at a bitrate of 1698kbps and he large quality ones are at 2679kbps. The clarity is quite good and provides for some fine erotic entertainment. DRM is not in place for any of the videos at English Lads.

NOTE: If you plan on streaming the videos using .mov you will be prompted to install the Quicktime plugin before you can view them in that format.

Photos:
There are currently 250 picture galleries inside English Lads. All are accessible from each page where you got to the videos. Just click on the “Photos” tab at the top of each collection page. On each picture gallery page there are a few options for viewing photos:

450px × 675px – medium size portraits

675px × 450px – medium size landscapes

750px × 1125px – large size portraits

1125px × 750px – large size landscapes

All galleries are flash based and can either be viewed one image at a time or through a slideshow. Each gallery contains an average of 400 pictures or more. Getting to each page of each gallery is easy via numbered links at the bottom of each gallery. Another great function is a drop down menu in the top right corner of each gallery where you can switch to another models’ gallery. Very few sites I’ve seen have this feature available. There are no downloadable zip files available, but you may save each individual picture by right clicking and “saving as”. The photography is nothing short of professional and while the poses where sometimes monotonous due to how many pics are available, there are more than enough action shots to make up for it. Some of the image galleries match the videos and some don’t.

Bonuses:
With a Membership to English Lads Members are given access to a community forum which looks quite active as well the Newsletter which comes out every 2 days.

Updates:
All updates at English Lads are listed by the dates they were added. Looking at what is currently brand new, they update every 3-5 days with a video as well as photo set.

Additional Comments:
I have to say that I’m quite impressed with English Lads. Their navigational setup is a bit different, so at first it threw me off. However, once I learned how things were laid out I found it to be a great surfing experience. The amount of content here is massive to say the least. Especially the photo galleries. Not one of them had anything less than 300 pictures. The action is super hot and the quality of video is very good. There is no doubt that English Lads is worth every penny they are asking for access to their hot english men getting off. For the best of the best when it comes to hot British amateurs, English Lads is certainly at the top of the heap.
