I'm thinking the elbows you be high and the bell kept closer to the body...more an upper back thing when your throwing it up and the form closer to that of a clean or a snatch...

Otherwise that could result in some elbow problems I bet.
The way she is doing it is comparable to someone doing parallel squats or 1/2 squats instead of ATG squats. It does look like she curls is a little at the end but that is to get the flip motion. The motion for the flip should be a swing with the arms bent a little and be inbetween a swing and a high pull.
Also, there are many ways to juggle a KB.
