Not really, the post impact pivot that you see in the video as well as in Bubba Watson's swing or so I am told is caused by a very strong pivot motion that is anchored against the right foot.
Think of the body as a towel with the club on one end and the legs on the other. Now try to wring water. The upper body goes left while the legs stay rooted to the ground. When the upper body rotation becomes too great for the legs to bear, then the right foot gets dragged left and the left foot twists.

Just wanted to say thanks for pointing that site out. I´m going to check out the modules.I was in TGM but this seems more sensible and I like Johns approach. I have also learned a great deal from the forums there that has already affected my swing for the better.

“Justin is clear in explaining why certain things workand why others don't. His teaching methods includecolourful analogies and visuals - the key to impartinga lasting impression when we are talking about acomplex motion like the golf swing. They help me toremember certain important positions when I practice. His instruction is predicated on science, nothingwill go wrong if you execute accordingly, in factyou'll end up playing like a machine and enjoying thegame more than you do now. I know I am. “

“Dear Justin, I want to relate my weekend game last sat... After practicing the on plane pitching action with only sand wedge, I proceeded with caution to my regular sat foursome.But no need to fear. Awesome results! Shot an easy 80 at Kranji. Never have I been able to hit a 3 wood off the turf so consistently and accurately. And my pitched 3 wood went further than “normal” due to flushed contact with clubhead lag! The sound coming off some of my irons were pure. Also the in to out path stroke makes ‘over the top’ impossible to achieve.Now if I can only get to the full swing!. Golf nirvana beckons haha”

Am I correct in assuming the post impact pivot is based on or strongly connected to the straightening of the left leg post impact?
