Today we're taking a look at another corporate amateur site, brought to you by the same people who brought you the sensational Tawnee Stone. Slightly younger, but just as cute, is our friend for today named Jordan Capri. I haven't been to a Lightspeed site in a while, but looking around it's a very familiar feeling. I think they got the teen amateur thing down, and now just go out hunting for chicks to fill in the gaps in their template.
The member's area is almost a clone of Tawnee's. But that's ok, since it's pretty simple to get around. Looking through the latest updates, I was a little peeved that they don't distinguish between photo and video updates here, but overall it's not that big of a deal. She updates twice a week, which I think was a recent change (back in November 2003 or so). That means one new photo and video set each week, which is good considering most amateurs don't have enough video.
Much like the other Lightspeed girls, there's not any hardcore here. These girls look pretty, and will mess around (barely) with the other girls, but nothing too serious ever comes of it. Her photo galleries are divided up into solo, and girl/girl sets for easier browsing. I kinda wish there was a full listing of all the galleries, but again, nothing's perfect.
Checking out her galleries, I'm disappointed that there's not a ton to look at. There's under 30 solo and girl/girl galleries each, which I guess adds up to somewhere between 50-60 total picture galleries. That's not horrible, but at an update each week, the site's only about a year old. The pictures themselves are as good as Tawnee's were. Lightspeed has a certain photographic style, which is mostly amateur in look and feel, but it gets the job done. They are generally well-lit, and look pretty clear. Pic size is pretty much always 800x530 or so, sometimes dipping a little lower than that.
The videos section is decent sized, considering a lot of amateur don't have that many vids available. All around, the videos look a bit more amateur to me than the pics did, not that that's bad. They're offered in Real Video, and Windows Media format. The Windows Media are 320x240, and 700kbps. The numbers look great, but the video just looks "pretty good." The Real Video has to be completely downloaded first, but once that's up they look fine as well. Overall, the biggest problem for me was the music the put over the whole thing, so a lot of the time you couldn't really hear what was going on in the video. I looked around their message boards, and others complained about this as well. I guess it's a legal thing, with the music the girls were playing while recording isn't licensed. For future shoots, they're trying to play music that's on the up and up in the background, so you'll actually be able to hear what's going on in the video as well.
She has a lot of extras available. Watch out for a few upsells though here and there inside the member's area. Besides the third-party feeds and plugins, she also offers access to one other site of Lightspeed's after you've been a full member for a week. Each week, you can pick a new one to check out. That's a huge plus since they have a bevy of beautiful babes. She also has a diary that she writes in a couple times a month (or less sometimes). Her message board is the second most active, behind the famous Tawnee of course.
The huge downside is the price, at $35 a month. For one site (or rather two, after you've been a member for a week), it's rather expensive. I hate to say it, but I'd almost rather pay $5 more and get access to a bunch more of their sites through one of the network gateways. Jordan is definitely a cutie, and has fun in her shoots it seems. She needs more content, hopefully the updates keep coming. One thing to note is that this girl looks really, really young. I have no doubt that she's over 18, but at times for me it was just a little weird looking at her. If you can get past the price, or just fall in love with her looks, she offers up some decent amateur content you're not going to find elsewhere.

Review: 05-08-06 |
It's been quite a long time since we've seen Jordan in action, almost two years. If I'm not mistaken, she actually took some time off from the business but decided to come back thankfully (though the site never stopped updating as they had a good collection of content available).
The site is bigger than ever, though it's still not huge (but the video count it up in the 80's now which is nice!). Photos are a little larger, but otherwise the spirit of the site remains true to form for the Lightspeed sites. We're down to just $30 a month now if you want access to just one girl's site, though they have more expensive options if you need more girls. Overall, I'm glad to see the growth, but the high price and lack of interaction still hold her site back a bit.
Score decreased from 80.6 to 76.5.
