I chose 'I always join if I want to' because that's true, but I also always read all the reviews and specs at TBP and PU. If a reviewer doesn't like the site I'd still be inclined to join if I like the porn, but at least I go into it with my eyes open. The real value is when a TBP or PU reviewer gives information that there is something about the site that would be a deal breaker for me. Like if the biller is bad, the site is streaming only or there is an unreasonable download limit. Those are warnings that definitely influence my decision.

Thanks. I joined and was pleased to see that as the price. I'll post a review after I've spent some time on the site.

I really liked the site, but as you say, the real value is that it is part of a great network.
And the models are VERY MUCH to my liking too!

Petite Ballerinas Fucked

Was a member approx. 1 month prior to this review.
|
| Pros: |
- Rare niche
- A-list models
- Models from the U.S. and EE/Russia
- Updates regularly
- Part of a great network
- Many streaming and download options
- Pictures and screenshots available
- Tags to help sort scenes
- Allows download managers
- Good download speeds
- ‘Soft’ hardcore
- TBP discount |
| Cons: |
- Search function isn't fully functional (this is a very minor con) |
| Bottom Line: |
Petite Ballerinas Fucked is a relatively new site added to the Nubiles Porn network, having launched in September 2015. The site remains relatively small and will take time to grow as it only adds one new scene per month. While that doesn’t sound great, consider that PBF is part of a network that offers a total of 11 sites with seven of those still active and updating. (On a related note, I mourned the death of both Nubiles Casting and Driver XXX in a comment here earlier this month and the webmaster replied that these sites are on a bit of a vacation and that the network is hoping to reactivate them in the near future. That’s great news.)
If you can say only one positive thing about this site it’s that the title isn't misleading. If the title were anything else I’d have described the site as one where petite ballerinas get fucked. But the truth is that there are plenty of other good things to say about this site.
The scene set-ups aren't particularly complex. In fact, they’re downright simple: a young, petite woman in a ballerina outfit shows some simple ballet moves and then the male talent walks in and they start to have sex. Sure, it is a bit more involved than that in some scenes but there aren't scenes with complex plots here. The scenes skew to the softer end of the hardcore spectrum. If you’re looking for throat-fucking and relentless pounding you won’t find it here. What you will find is some hot porn where the sensuality is turned up. In keeping with the softer nature of the scenes there is lots of kissing and the men perform oral on the women as foreplay. There is no anal sex. Also, none (that I found anyway) of the come shots were facials. I don’t know what constitutes ‘couples-friendly’ porn, but this has to at least come close.
In keeping with the ballerina theme, many of the scenes have the models keeping their outfit on for an extended time and using the bar as a prop for both foreplay and sex.
The scenes are also a natural length with the average being around 20 minutes. In keeping with the softer edge of the site these aren't 90 minute marathon sessions.
The technical aspects of the scenes are all well done too. The sound, lighting and editing are all top quality, which adds to the overall feel to the site.
One feature that indicates to me that the directors understand their primary audience is that the women are clearly the stars. The men are all attractive (which may contribute to making the site couples-friendly) but the men obviously understand that the scenes are about the women and the men do their best to help the women stay as the centre of the scene.
Speaking of the women here, the site is a who’s who of many A-list models from both sides of the Atlantic. If I had to pick one feature that makes this site a real stand-out it has to be that the women are exceptionally beautiful, though admittedly these models are also the exact look and body type I prefer. (As I said above, the site has to get some of the credit for recognizing that the women need to be the centre of the scenes.)
There are currently 33 scenes available spread over three main pages. Clicking on a scene opens it and provides you with many options.
Streaming is available in five resolutions: 1920x1080, 1280x720, 960x540, 640x360 and 480x270. To the site’s credit, the streaming doesn’t begin automatically as soon as you open the page.
Downloads are available in mp4 format in the same five resolutions as the streamed scenes. There is also one WMV download in 1280x720. I downloaded the 1920x1080 files and found a wide variation in bitrates, from 5800kbps to 18000kbps. I couldn’t tell that there was a discernable difference with the files on a 24” monitor. They all look good.
Photos are available as singles or zips and come in your choice of resolutions: 5760x 3840, 2000x1333 and 1200x800. Screenshots are available too but only in 1920x1080.
No member can reasonably complain that there isn't some format to their liking.
I used a download manager to queue scenes and had no issues doing that. I had no problem with links timing out. Finally, the download speeds were on par with the best sites I’ve subscribed to recently.
The technical aspects of the site are all well done too. The site is logically laid out and easy to use. Each scene has a series of tags defining the popular porn niches. There is a search function and it does work, but it searches the entire network rather than the site you’re on. That’s certainly not a deal-breaker.
The bottom line is that this is a great site serving a rare niche that is part of a great network. The icing on the cake is that the site offers a TBP/PU discount. I’d recommend this site if it were a stand-alone site (with more updates though…) but since it is part of a great network I highly recommend that you check it out. |

An interesting review...
I've been a member here many times and still join occasionally but a lot of the sites don't update any more. This site is tremendous value for someone who is just new to collecting porn though. It has a lot to offer, as do most of the Fame sites.
One caveat: cancelling through their online service is a pain in the ass. It can be done, but be prepared to have to enter a lot of information. I'm glad to hear that the chat worked for support. That may be the way to go.

Well, back in the 1980s when all the pornstars were voluptuous and had large breasts I was in love with the very few who were petite. So in that way I was ahead of the curve when more petite models became more frequent. ;-)

Thanks for posting this. Like you, I've had my eye on Dare Dorm but never joined because it was streaming only. Knowing I can download the scenes makes it much more likely that I'll join.
The bad news is that it doesn't look like the $10 charge is still available. I'm seeing $30 now.

I've bought annual memberships and keep a few recurring memberships but I've never taken the plunge on a lifetime membership. I think the risk is just too much that the site would fold up not long after I signed up.

Excellent review! I haven't been a member here is several years and based on your review I visited the site again. I think I'll rejoin soon. I'm looking forward to seeing some of the newer content that you described.

Thanks for the comment. Yeah, 97 is high for me. I think some of that may be subjective. I try really hard to limit any subjective influence but I was hung over this morning when I finished the review...
Seriously though, this is a great site.

| Pros: |
- Huge site
- Hundreds of Studios
- Thousands of Videos (non-exclusive)
- Original material is very good
- Four distinct original sub-sites
- Full trial
- Bills through Epoch
- Photos available
- Allows download managers |
| Cons: |
- Bitrates are a bit lower than standard |
| Bottom Line: |
It’s difficult to write a review of this site in 5000 characters because it is so large and so broad. Because of that I’ll make some general comments on the overall site and then address the original material specifically.
The overall site is huge and appears to be either a clone of or at least affiliated with Videosz. Videosz is one of the largest mega sites on the ‘net and Bang is no exception in that regard. A membership to Bang will give you access to thousands of videos from hundreds of studios ranging from recent to 20+ years old. Sites like these are an excellent source for finding older videos for collectors. For example, Bang offers many older titles from JM Productions and many of the scenes are higher resolution than what is offered at JM’s own site.
It’s fair to say that access to the non-exclusive stuff is worth the price of admission here but, in my opinion, the real value is original material. I’ll focus on that for the rest of the review.
Bang.com is a studio in its own right, producing some top-quality original porn and they make it available here as well as on DVD.
There are four sub-sites offering original material. These are, in no particular order:
Bang Real Teens
This is, in my opinion, one of the best ‘casting’ style sites available. If you’re a fan of casting style videos this is worth checking out. The scenes all feature known A-list porn models so in that sense they aren't true ‘casting’ videos but the style of having an interview followed by a sex scene aligns them with that genre. What sets this site apart is that in many of the videos the interview takes place outdoors or in a public place and often features public nudity. I’m a big fan of public nudity and really appreciate that this site does it well. It isn't on the same scale as FTV Girls but it is very well done. The sex scene follows and is shot in a hotel.
There are currently 32 video available with streaming and downloads. The site updates with a new scene weekly.
Bang Gonzo
This sub-site offers truth in labelling: it’s a purely gonzo site with A-list models in hot sex scenes with Manuel Ferrara in all of them. Manuel brings his usual intensity to the scenes and, as is his style, he showcases the beautiful women he is with. True to the title, there is little or no scene set-up – Manuel and his co-star are on the set and the sex begins.
There are currently 32 video available with streaming and downloads. The site updates with a new scene weekly.
Bang Confessions
This site is difficult to categorize. It isn't an interview; it isn't really gonzo; it’s a combination of both. The scenes have some interviews with the models and we get a sense of their personality and then there is a gonzo sex scene thrown in for good measure. As with all Bang originals, the models are current A-list.
The site currently has 11 videos and update irregularly. Lately the updates have been approximately once per month.
Bang Casting
This sub-site is apt to be the most polarizing since it follows a casting theme but tends to be very rough. The scenes see the model (an A-list as usual) getting roughed up by one or multiple men. The scenes often have rough anal sex and sometimes have the model being spat on. There are a few scenes with the model being urinated on. All of this is clearly consensual.
There are currently 32 scenes available. The site updates at least monthly but some updates have been added more frequently.
Overall the original sites offer streaming (no resolution options) and downloads. The downloads are all mp4 and are available in 360p, 540p, 720p, 1080p, 2160p (4K). The notable exception is that Bang Real Teens does not have the 4K option. I downloaded the 720p scenes and found that the bitrates (at just over 2000 kbps) are a bit low but the scenes look good.
Photos are available as zips only but it is fair to say that this isn't a photo site. Photo size is 1735x2600.
The site allows download managers for queuing scenes and I had no issues using one for that. I found the download speeds slightly slower than I normally see on similar sites but nothing that is worth complaining about.
The site offers a full trial and that may be worth trying just to see the site or download a few scenes but my advice is that if you are a true collector you won’t be satisfied with a trial. Even without a discount this site offers excellent value. The trial (and full membership) bill through Epoch so cancelling is easy.
This site deserves a deeper dive but I’m running out of space. The bottom line? At the risk of trademark infringement the easy answer to the question of should you join this site is ‘Just Do It.’ I’ve been an avid and active porn collector for more than 20 years and I can say without reservation that this is one of the best sites I’ve encountered in the past few years. I will rejoin again and again and if they offered a better deal for recurring memberships I wouldn’t leave.

I've always got room for more favourites, but I have many models that will always be on the list. Heck, I have favourite models I still watch from the mid-1990s.

Welcome to PU. I hope you stick around for a while.
Unfortunately you've fallen into the same trap that's snagged so many of us that TBP/PU won't even list them here any longer. Their primary biller, Centrobill, seems to be a front for a scam.
Sadly, being scammed by Centrobill isn't really an exclusive club...

Yup... put me down as agreeing with Jay G as well. The hunt is a big part of the hobby for me. And I also like having to catalogue and maintain my collection too. 'Curating' my collection is probably the most time consuming part of it.
