Out of those, I'd say Hy-Road.  Since you're basically looking at a benchmark piece, my opinion is that solids or hybrids are generally a safer bet.  I have heard, however, that the 2D rolls a lot like a solid with a little more pop.  I'm surprised you didn't mention the Nomad Solid, that would be an option as well.

what if i were to add the cell pearl in the mix? i can get one of those from a friend that doesnt want his anymore. think thatll work too?

I had a Cell Pearl and sold it---didn't match up with my game. Either over/under or too many ten pins (burning out). I tried adjusting the surface and just could not find the right fix. It is a strong ball, skid flip and very angular. I am a stroker, ball speed around 15mph quibica.

I would reccomend trying a Cell Pearl before purchasing one. Some guys in our league love it. For me, the Gravity Shift and Virtual Gravity worked much better.

For me the Cell Pearl is money.  I have several, all different layouts, pin up or pin down.  I did keep the surface OOB. No issues what so ever and this is coming from someone who is known as "Mr. Bracket" cause I have been known to clean up and take a good number of brackets as they say.

Cell Pearl or the Phone Booth Ball as I call it,  is a geat ball.  It just seems to fit my game.
