Having just recently watched one of 2502's matches, I believe this means climbing in a way that the bottom of the robot is re-oriented to points sideways away from the tower.

All things equal, I think this kind of scale is more valuable than a simple hang. However, I would take a consistent hang over an inconsistent no-footprint scale, unless I already have two climbers on my alliance and a triple scale would not otherwise be possible.
