Truth is, there is nothing comparable to the HyRoad.  That's why it is still in production after 7 years.  Check the numbers for the weight you throw as they vary from 14-16:
16     RG:2.52     Diff:.058
15     RG:2.57     Diff:.046
14     RG:2.58     Diff:.037

There really isn't something exactly comparable to the Hy-Road in the Storm line.  The Rocket is closer but is something to ball down to when you need something cleaner through the fronts/mids.  When the Cross Road came out, it was supposed to replace it and couldn't.  The Fire Road couldn't replace it either. 

The Hy-Road has been in production for over 7 years now for a reason.  It's one of the best benchmark balls out there.  I had one and enjoyed throwing it.  Only reason I don't have it anymore is because I switched most of the arsenal over to Motiv.

My advice is this.  If staying in Storm/RG, just stick with the Hy-Road.  If you want to venture outside of Storm/RG and you can find a Motiv Sigma Sting, get it.  Even though it's a pearl compared to a hybrid, it is virtually identical to the Hy-Road with its motion.  That ball was retired a while back and can be tougher to find sometimes.

Vkowalski1970 has one that he would let go for the right price.
