Have you tried the one with a ball on the bottom and a plateau on the top, basically that one upside down? I like those and I used to use them for ankle strengthening. Just stand on them for 3x120 secs on each foot.

Get a copy of Convict Conditioning and check out its section on squats, they progress through to one leg squats. If you can do that you'll have all the ankle stability you need and without having to fork out for equipment.
