Ok guys, I have a Hy-Road, and it does have its place in the arsenal. However, I always wondered what the differences between the Rogue Cell and the Hy-Road hybrids were. For those who have thrown both, what did you like and dislike about either ball?

At box finish there is a fairly large difference between the Rogue Cell (4000 Abralon) and the Hyroad (1500 polish). Add in a lower RG and higher friction cover the Rogue Cell is much earlier and overall stronger. Even when I changed my Hyroad to 4000 Abralon it really still doesn't close the gap it just smoothes out the Hyroad's reaction.

Thanks. I ended up buying my Hy-Road used at a good price, and slotted it between my 919C and Vital Energy. So far, when I have used it, it will work for its purpose and have shot some good games with it. It seems to be a little more condition specific (similar to the Anarchy I had where I could barely use it).
Since it's the summer, I'm going to experiment with the surface and see if I can really get the Hy-Road to come alive.
