Purpose of Tornado Spinning?

[Cupcake]

Does anyone out there use tornado spins in games? I see it a good amount from pros, I think jstn does it a lot, but I personally haven't found any reason to implement it into my play. Does it accomplish anything more than kuxir twisting or is it pretty much just for style?

kuxir twisting is more useless than tornado spins imo

I use it like everytime I airdrag, gives you much more freedom in your movement

I often find myself using a kux twist to recover an air dribble when I'm too far in front of the ball, but I can't really get a feel for tornado spins. Every time I try to practice them I just mess myself up. I've heard from some people that they let you get better touches, and the fact that pros seem to do them makes me think they could be worth learning. Are there certain scenarios during an air dribble (I'm assuming airdrag is the same term, right?) when you like to use them or is it just always?
