Bikini Hookups is another entry into the field of reality porn. The past few years has seen a never ending stream of these sites. This one is brought to you by the people over at Gamma Entertainment who also have other reality such as Lesbo 101 and Yvon's Training. A couple things that are typically found with their sites, with Bikini Hookups being no exception, is clean looking designs and a ton of extra content. In this case that extra content is very necessary because as of today (February 3, 2004) the total number of episodes is just sixteen.
The premise here is the host and cameraman get some loser laid by picking up a chick at the beach. They try to be funny by telling the girl the guy is a millionaire, country music star, has a plantation, or some outrageous claim. Mostly it's half-hearted efforts at humor and doesn't match up with some of the other totally off-the-wall and hilarious reality sites. The sex is also pretty standard boy/girl action with some oral, sex, and then a facial. In fact, each episode is divided up into three vids: Pick Up, Oral, and Fuck. I found the best thing the content had going for it was the collection of girls. The vast majority of these girls have very nice bodies. Basically with the reality portion being fairly bland the entertainment value of the content wasn't up to the level I expected.
So there's sixteen episodes in three video episodes each. They're all Windows Media player files with high, medium, and low speed choices. Streaming and downloading are both available. Unlike many reality sites, the pictures here are worthwhile and not just bad screen captures. They're very sharp and just smaller than 800x600.
The extra content is definitely worth noting because it includes an amazing amount of pictures, video, and live feeds. While much is typical leased content, the big plus is among the videos there's lots of original content from Gamma's other sites like BrunoB, Yvon's Training, and Peter North. That's the best benefit and it helps out a lot in making up for the smaller amount of Bikini Hookups movies. Membership also gets you access to three bonus sites: AllTeens.com, RealHardcore.com, and WebYoung.com. As far as price goes, there's a rather lengthy trial option of $4.95 for 7-days recurring at $29.95/mo. The only catch is you've got to cancel 48 hrs before the rebill date if you don't want to stay a member.

Quite a bit of time has passed since we first looked at Bikini Hookups. The number of episodes has grown although I do see some wavering from the beach pick-up concept. Those type of episodes are still getting added along side some others that are more standard porn scenes starting with a chick indoors. I do recognize some of these shoots from other video sites. If I had to wager a guess I'd say it's likely that more and more of the updates will be of the non bikini hookup style. That's the way things seem to be headed here, we'll see how it plays out. I'm also no longer seeing the three download speeds (there’s just 1 now) and the videos are no longer divided into the Pick Up, Oral, and Fuck sections. The site seems to have been homogenized to be more like the format of this company’s other sites.
Score decreased from 76.1 to 74.0.
