I would recommend the tippy board. When you are doing agility, dogs do not experience side to side tipping movment - only the teeter. If you are looking to train/replicate what they are going to see on an agility course - go for the tippy board.

You should easily be able to make one on your own for little money. Just go to Home Depot (they will cut the board for you). Have them cut you a 1" x 12" to a six foot length and then attach a short piece of PVC (1 1/2" diameter to start - you can always go larger later) and you have a tippy board.
