I think that rotation is actually easier on the elbow than the opposite

It's similar to how you throw a football, so you might be right

Maybe but when I used to try and throw it in wiffle ball, my arm felt like it

It looks pretty similar to a circle change that some throw. What are the big differences?

It actually looks more like a forkball than a circle change from what I can see

I have seen a number of different variations to the circle change. Split 3-4 fingers are pretty common.

Looks like what Brandon Webb used to throw for the Dbacks.
