Unless the wall matches the curvature of the top surface of the frisbee, then I don't see them falling upside down after hitting a wall. The only possible case would be if there is no rotation on the frisbee. The net on the other hand might cause some more variances, but unless you were trying to hit the net, you're not going to hit it.
