Her Lubed scene, titled “Soaked Pounding,” features Quinn performing alongside Brick Danger. “The petite natural beauty shows off her flawless body in a two-piece in the pool, seductively teasing the camera as she climbs out and strips down,” noted a rep. “Then, inside a well-lit white room, naked Kyler oils her body up before getting absolutely pounded by Brick.”

A trailer and additional details can be found here.

The performer also anchors “Kyler’s 1st Ever Airtight” for HussiePass opposite the formidable trio of Oliver Flynn, Damion Dayski and Danny Steele.

After a quick pre-sex interview, Quinn is covered in lube and gets “all three of her holes loosened up with some large rubber dongs,” the rep said. “Kyler gets on her knees and sucks off all three guys at the same time. Danny sticks one of the suction-cup dongs to the top of his head for a gag and has Kyler ride it as she blows Damion and Oliver.”
