Designed as the newest addition to Paige Pierce’s lineup, the Joy brings a straight, workable flight with enough glide to stay on line and enough finish to land with confidence. But the name itself carries something much deeper. Joy is named after Paige’s grandmother, Joyce, making this release a tribute to someone who meant the world to her.
If you’ve followed Paige’s disc lineup, you already know the names are never random. Each one connects to a feeling, a person, or a piece of her journey. The Joy fits right into that story.
Made for smooth, controlled flights
With flight numbers of 4 | 5 | -1 | 1, the Joy gives players a clean, easy-to-control option that can shape a variety of lines without needing a massive throw. The 4 speed makes it comfortable and manageable, giving it a controlled midrange feel that doesn’t demand too much power. The 5 glide helps it carry forward with ease, making it a great option for players who want distance without forcing the shot. The -1 turn gives it just enough movement to work straight, flip up, or drift slightly right for right-hand backhand players. The 1 fade finishes the flight with a gentle, reliable push back instead of a hard dump.
That combination makes the Joy a disc players can trust for touch shots, wooded fairways, controlled approaches, and smooth releases where placement matters more than power.
Where Joy fits in your bag
The Joy is built for players who want a disc that feels natural out of the hand and does not need to be overpowered to achieve it's flight characteristics.
For newer players, it can be a straight-flying midrange that helps build confidence and cleaner form. For experienced players, it offers a workable slot for hyzer flips, soft turnovers, controlled straight shots, and touchy approach lines where angle control is everything.
It is the type of disc that rewards smooth timing. Put it on the right line, let the glide do its job, and trust it to carry.
A First Run worth remembering
First Run releases always carry a extra weight. They mark the beginning of a mold’s story and give players the first chance to experience where a disc fits in the lineup. For Paige, the Joy is more than just another disc. It adds a new piece to her game, her lineup, and her story with Discraft. The tribute behind the name gives this release a personal connection, while the flight gives players a real reason to put it in the bag.
The First Run Joy brings together meaning, control, and effortless glide in a way that feels true to Paige’s lineup.
