Well, technically, a Frisbee does fly when it is upside down, but not as far as when you throw the right way. This happens because when you throw it normally, the disc catches the wind under the rim and pushes it farther. Plus, when you throw this way, you are able to put more spin and power into the disc with how you grip the disc.
