On the right track, with the finger roll isolation try to keep your pinkies and index fingers level with each other so you have a tray rather than a cup.
With the incy wincy spider enigma (I think it's actually "Eddison's enigma" but I like incy wincy ;)) try using your thumb and index rather than your middle finger and end each sweep of the hands with the thumb and index in an OK sign at the top and bottom of the ball.

I liked the little enigma variation at about 1:40 where you move it side to side. Remember to think slow, like, painfully slow. If it seems like your going to slow, try to go even slower. That helped me smooth things out pretty quickly.
