REVIEW
In recent years Hell4Leather have become staples of the AOC Gear Test, nearly always pushing for the top spots, and after taking bronze last year they’ve gone one better in 2016. With a slightly bowed face in the Indian tradition and a reasonably low middle accentuated by thick, meaty edges, the new-model Warbird – in their highest grade of willow – has all the touches of a standard H4L, carried off with added flair and flourish. How much longer can they go under the radar?
