Bareback MastersBareback Masters is brought to us by barebacking stars Anthony DeAngelo and Cameron Cruise, also known as Tony&Cam. Their site is easy to use with a menu both on the upper right and on the left side running down the page and previews of some of their videos with descriptions from Tony or Cam. Tony and Cam are mature and masculine, unshaven and into leather, rough sex and the taste of cock. They are also the directors and producers of the videos on the site as well as either one or both often being the stars, and we don't often get to see that level of involvement in a site. If condom-free sex and real men are your thing, join me as I take an in-depth look at the member area of Bareback Masters!

The member area is almost the same as the tour with the brief menu on the upper right and extended menu on the left side of the page. There are currently 17 pages with 9 videos listed on each for a total of 147 episodes at this time, each with a video, a set of vidcaps and many with a set of digital stills, as well. There's a handy link to support as well as a contact link. The site has been updating every Wednesday since it opened. There are thumbs listings each video on the lower right side of the page, each listed with the episode title and running time of video below each thumb.

Bareback MastersThe movies inside Bareback Masters are in 3 sizes of WMV and most are available in 1 size of Quicktime, as well. The biggest and best videos are the high quality vids, with a bitrate of around over 1000k and are shown at 720x480. All the WMVs and over half the Quicktime videos are offered at that size. The medium vids, shown at 360x240, stream at around 500k and guess what. There's even a video option for dialup and ISDN users as the low vids have a bitrate of around 93k. The movies can be streamed or downloaded and added to your collection. Since the videos do not use any DRM, they can be played forever from your harddrive.

Each video can be watched as a full movie in either WMV or Quicktime format or in 6 WMV clips. Many of the movies come with a set of high quality digital stills that are average porn quality and shown nice and large at a screen size of around 750x1000. Each vid also comes with a set of vidcaps that are 720x480 and most are pretty good for vidcaps. Both vidcaps and digital stills are offered in thumbnailed galleries and the thumbs are big enough so that you can see what's happening before you click a pic.

The thing worth mentioning about the quality at Bareback Masters is that some of the videos and pics in the site are professional productions with high end lights and cameras where some of the videos are homemade amateur productions which, while normal quality for homemade vids are amateur quality and not the sharper images and vids found in the professionally shot movies.

Bareback MastersEach movie has its own page and besides links to the pics and videos, there is a list of all the stars, a description of the action from either Tony or Cam and director's notes from one of them - depending on which of them directed. The notes are horny, as you'd expect from a guy who was also involved in the scene. They're also sometimes funny and sometimes include some trivia as well as adding a personal feel to the site.

For Tony&Cam fans, you'll find their very first - and previously unreleased - video there. Offered in 3 parts, it was shot at home and although it is definitely amateur quality, complete with a somewhat shaky handed cameraman, the action is hot and there's a very imtimate feel to it as well as raw bareback sex.

There are some classic fantasies here. Cam goes in for an exam and ends up getting fucked by the doctor. I also found vids with a military theme, leather daddies and that old standby, fucking the repairman. There are also movers, sex in an alley, working men and an all-out barebacking orgy featuring 6 guys at once. And not anywhere in this site did I see anyone using a condom - the content is all bareback and there's plenty of cum dripping at the end of each episode. And keep in mind that most of the men in this site are over 40.

There are a couple of features worth mentioning. The one I really like is the member blog. It's updated twice a week by Tony and Cam themselves, and not only tells about updates but includes info about models, Tony and Cam's plans for new shoots, site news and personal stuff. There are also pics from some episodes and exclusive pics, as well. Definitely cool if you like behind the scenes stuff, and honestly one of the best pornstar blogs I've seen. There's also a free version on the tour. They also have a model index with a profile of each model. You can search through the models to find the ones you like the best, then click the episodes they appear in.

Bareback MastersThe site hasn't changed that much since our last visit, although adding an episode every week has ensured that it more than doubled in size since our last visit. The big change is the addition of Quicktime videos, a welcome addition for Mac users and those who just happen to prefer Quicktime. These videos are big and good quality - a little better than the WMVs, actually.

The only real issue I had with Bareback Masters is that in some of the videos the watermark on the videos is a little on the large side. It wasn't huge, but once in a while I did find myself more aware of it than I'd have liked. One other thing that I didn't mind at all but some might is that although most of the videos are bareback gay sex, there are some intimate videos of Tony or Cam jacking off, as well. Of course, Tony and Cam or daddy fans may find this a plus, since these are exclusive to the site and shot by Tony or Cam.

Whether you're a fan of "real man" porn, older guys, daddies and leather or you love bareback videos, Bareback Masters has got you covered. They currently offer 147 episodes, mostly over 15 minutes each and offered as full videos and clips. The movies come in 3 sizes including 1 high quality version and 1 for dialup and are WMVs plus one size of Quicktime videos that download fast and play smoothly. Every video comes with a set of vidcaps and most come with high quality digital stills There is no DRM here and every single video is 100% condom free! Add to that regular weekly updates and one of the best blogs around and you'll see why Bareback mastesr is worth checking out.

Things we liked:

  • Mostly exclusive bareback content
  • Regular weekly updates
  • Videos are downloadable
  • No DRM used

Things we didn't like:

  • Some older videos have large watermark

User Feedback

Anthony DeAngelo | 15 Aug 2008 | My rating: 5 out of 5 stars

Hey Men:

First off, I'd like to thank the folks here at GayDemon for their great review of our site barebackMasters - we greatly appreciate the time and effort they have put into carefully reviewing what we've got going on line

and second, I'd like to thank all the members for their candid reviews and remarks and support for what Cam and I consider to be our life's work - fucking on film - and putting it up on line for all to see and enjoy

I do want to straighten out a couple of small details on the review side... we actually have 13 pages (as of this writing) with links to 9 videos on each page which totals about 117 videos we have up and live and ready to jerk off to whenever the mood strikes. And, we've added a large number of QuickTime videos to round out our offering.

We've also been correcting the "overly large" watermark and releasing all new videos (for the past year) with a new and much smaller wm...

We love what we do and I hope it shows. I think, but am not certain, that we're the only gay couple in history that has ever shot and produced as many videos as we have and have been in them together - and have done all of them bareback - except for the 20 or so we shot for others when we were getting started

As long as you men like what you see, we'll keep doing what we do and inviting hot men over to fuck with and get that footage up and on line for you to get off to.

And read our blog - the Tony&Cam Bareback Blog gives you a bi-weekly view into our lives and is about as real as it gets.

And in the members' area, check out our new video series in CRUISIN' WITH CAM - which are some great shorter (12-15 minute) vids with a lot of back-story and never before seen out takes. Very hot!

Of course, I've rated our site with 5 stars because its SOOO good and better than any other bareback site I've seen - but then, I'm a bit bias aren't I...

markwayne | 06 May 2008 | My rating: 3 out of 5 stars

Beware! Most of the videos have annoying highnrgy music playing on them. The videos would be much more intense hearing just the sex and nothing else.

John | 05 Jan 2008 | My rating: 4 out of 5 stars

I am giving this site 4 stars, mostly because of its originality. These guys really have a lot of fun doing what they do in front of the camera and it shows. With the exception of the bareback sex, most of their newer stuff this is the type of material you'd expect to see in a modern Titan or Falcon studio production.

I give them an "A" for effort!
