I reckon that means that it moves from hyzer to flat, or that a roller moves to vertical.
The problem with some terms is that they mean different things to different people.
thanks yea i hear it a lot in pdga videos but wasn't 100 percent sure of the meaning.
no i think armus was right ....i'm just terrible with slangHere are few hundred posts on dg slang.
When I read "disc standing up", I thought you meant, Stick one in the mud/ground? Call it a 'Tombstone'
and i searched that thread and the forum for "stand up" "standing up" got nothing or so much to search through it was impossibleHere are few hundred posts on dg slang.

I've always taken "stand up" meaning moving from askew to vertical (roller) or horizontal (hyzer-flip). Also when a missed putt "stands up" and rolls away.
Someone should start an "urban dictionary" for disc golf. Of course that would mean about 100 entries for "stable."

That ain't got no meanin for "stand up" neither.
Disc golfers refuse to agree on a consensus for disc golf terms. Especially a scooby. That means like 8 different things, lol.*
I agree that "standing up" is probably similar with a "flip up hyzer." Especially when you want the disc to stay hyzer and it just flips to flat and goes too straight. Sometimes a disc will climb on you if it flips flat, thus it "stands up" on you (often aided by headwind). Could be said with the roller too, like Armus said.
*I'm in the camp where scooby just means you just throw a disc upside down and skip it intentionally

yea i know was frustrating i went to like 3 or 4 terminology sites and searched for it on forums (either nothing or so many posts i couldn't visit all of them)
do you mean scooby or scoober
I guess they're the same thing here except I don't know if I've heard anyone call anything a scoober. :\

Don't bother. It'll all change by March, anyway.

Standing up for me means when you throw like something on a Hyzer and it goes from hyzer to flat
