Center of mass would be at the center of the disc, so the further out you go, the more sideways will feel like "down".

In other words, if you started at the center and started walking rimwards, it'd gradually start feeling like you're walking uphill; Because relative to gravity you actually are. But the further out you go, gravity would also be weaker, as you're further away from center of mass, so the "uphill climb" wouldn't be that hard.

    If the gravity is weaker overall, and also "down" becomes sideways, could you find yourself managing to do a higher than you'd normally achieve upward jump (relative to the ground, not the disc centre) and then end up falling for a very long time at great speed back towards the centre until you smash in to any geographical features?
