Pros & Cons
Pros
The foam is firm but not hard so if you miss the catch it won't cause any injury from the impact. The material is a firm foam so it actually works well for play in the house as we toss it back and forth in the living room.
It helps keep their eyes up while dribbling and keeps the concentration on something other than their dribble. Horseback riding would help because it encourages using both sides of the brain.
The manufacturer has a bunch of cool drills on their website film room that have made our training sessions much more interesting. This is a great tool that keeps the kids busy while coach is getting things set up for the next drill.

Competitiveness
These are a great addition to anyone's training practices.
These toys are hot right now and, frankly, i thought they were complete bs until i played this with my 9yo.
I wish it came with so more info on drills suggested by sklz.

The balls on the ends dont yield much when caught and will definitely sting with an imperfect catch

Though maybe thats part of the point

I tried playing with my four year old and it was way too tricky for her current level of ability and even though the foam is somewhat soft its still hardy enough to bop a person in the face and make them think twice

The thrower tosses it and says a color

If the recipient catches the correct color the thrower has to do five pushups

If the recipient catches the wrong color he does does five pushups if the recipient drops it and blows the catch he has to do ten pushups

If you spin it it is more difficult because it can turn very fast
