What makes a disc Hyzer Flip?

Why is it called a Hyzer Flip?
The hyzer angle was named after H.R. “Fling” Hyzer, who was a disc sports guru back when disc golf was in its infancy. Now in disc golf we call a shot that flies opposite to the arm swing a “hyzer shot” which is a bit of a misnomer as hyzer was intended to only mean the angle at release rather than the whole shot.

The tendency of a disc to turn to the right during the high speed portion of the flight for a RHBH thrower. The faster the disc is thrown, the more it will turn, therefore an understable disc will turnover more upwind than downwind.
