Claire Adams is the beautiful and talented femdom taking control over many a sexy young lady inside this site in recent years. Of course, there are more dominant people here than Ms. Adams, but you can anticipate as much sensuality and harsh rope bondage from them as you can from her. No matter which way you slice it, Hogtied is the perfect site for fans of rope bondage and BDSM.
Hogtied, if I recall correctly, was one of the very first Kink.com sites. The company was called something else back in 1998 when this site first came about, but Hogtied, amongst some of the other early day Kink sites, set the tone and pace for the BDSM and filming style you'll find inside the members' area.
Things are fairly well organized inside the members' area, although the pages don't diverge too much from what you see on the tour. You can choose to view the content in a gallery, brief or full view, which is something I like, and there are multiple browsing options. First, you can sort the material by date, rating or comments and second there is a category list under the heading labelled 'show everything'. The categories will only help you narrow down the types of girls you link to see. I wouldn't mind seeing this expanded to include types of bondage or even methods of orgasm (via vibrator, Sybian or other).
While you won't find any bonus sites with this membership, you do get access to an exclusive members' forum and the community is quite active. Also, Claire keeps members updated on the things happening with the site and with the shoots. A recent post by Claire explains that she will be laying off on using the Sybian machine for a while to explore "other orgasm avenues." In addition to the forum, there is one live show every month, which is exciting. However, if you happen to miss the shows I didn't immediately detect a gallery of past shows. In any case, it isn't as if there aren't enough scenes to keep you busy.
There are 1,033 full-length Hogtied episodes at your beck and call. It is a massive amount and all the episodes come with sets of pictures, as well. There aren't download limits, which will excite everyone and some people will also be happy to note that you can save stuff using a download manager. I did find myself a little confused about the content versus the tour description for Hogtied, though. On the tour pages I noted that lesbian action is played up. In fact, judging the tour promises alone, I expected all the content to revolve around lesbian scenarios. This is not an exclusively lesbian site, though. Claire Adams plays a huge role in a lot of the content, especially newer scenes, however, there are also plenty of Doms taking the lead fucking these bound bitches. There is nothing wrong with a mix of hardcore action, but those looking for lesbian content only may be a little surprised and disappointed.
While the average episode is an hour long, you'll also come across movies that are 90 minutes in length. All episodes come with 200 or more pictures, as well. There isn't a hands-free slideshow, and actually I felt there could be some better online viewing options, but there are Zip downloads. The photos are sharp and you can view them in a standard or 1200x800 high-resolution size.
There are preview trailers and smooth in-browser streams are offered in low, medium and high quality. Full-length downloads are available and the movies are also divided into shorter parts. All downloads come in standard and HD WMV (1620kbps, 1280x720) and there is an iPod/iPad compatible MP4, as well as an HD MP4 (5000kbps, 1280x720) format. The production values are fantastic and although the bitrates can be a little low, the movies still look very good overall.
Final Verdict
The bondage on Hogtied is intense and exciting and I truly adored the more contorted positions of the girls. This isn't a site just about rigging technique - it is true artistry. There is a great blend of of action, although this isn't just a site filled with lesbians. There are hundreds of lesbian scenes, but there are also scenes with submissive babes sucking cock and fucking while the rope tugs at their flesh. The site has a couple of little issues that could be improved to make it an even better site, but frankly I felt completely satisfied during my time at Hogtied.
