I have the ball. I don't really practice with it anymore, but I should. Either product will improve your stick handling and dangling. But the key here is practice. When I first got the ball i dedicated roughly 15 min a day just stickhandling and I would play with it before games in the change room for like 5 min. My stick handling definitely got better but it's something you HAVE to constantly use. If your not sure just get the ball and with practice, you should see a difference during games.

As you get more use to it, try adding some moves to make it harder and your eye/hand coordination and your reflexes will get quicker. I started out with the basic left to right stick handling as I got better I added a toe drag. I stopped practicing when I got to figure 8's. I haven't touched it in over a year and it definitely shows during my games.
