The spinning backfist is one of my favorite strikes. Although I didn't really develop it until training in CLF. Nowadays it's seen a lot in MMA, Muay Thai, and even back in the old days of American kickboxing, fighters were using it. So it isn't the sole property of any one style of MA.
Here is an example of its successful application outside of a professional ring. The way the guy uses it in this clip is identical to a twisting version of spinning backfist (spinning dot choi) in CLF, though there's no way of telling if he's actually a CLF practitioner, or if he trained MMA or some other method. Either way, it's clear to see he does it at a high level.
Anybody's views/opinions/experiences of spinning backfist are welcome.
