the subject line says it all. what do you consider the reaction of the
black widow pearl to be on a ths? how do you have yours drilled and what's
your style (cranker, etc.)?

Take a look at the reviews posted for the Black Widow ..... that should answer your questions.

I would consider it a strong continuous arc.  IMO, it is not a true skid/flip.  The Cherry Vibe is closer to what I consider a true skid/flip.  I guess with the right bowler, layout, and condition, you could make it flippy.  But, IMO not a true skid/flip ball.

i agree with twohands review however it does depend on how it is drilled i have one drilled very weak middle finger drilled into the pin just bowled 760 with it last week but alot af people are throwing them where i work (bowling alley)i have thrown other peoples drilled strong and they do roll off hard on the back but the cherry vibe is skid flip black widow pearl carries very well one of the best i have had and i have had several diff balls
