The Baby Jogger Summit XC Single Jogging Stroller is the perfect blend of functionality and comfort. The swivelling front wheel makes maneuvering effortless and can be quickly locked into place for jogging. The Baby Jogger Summit XC also comes with a padded, near-fully reclining seat and adjustable 5-point padded harness to ensure that your little one is safe while out and about.
The Baby Jogger Summit XC is a true hybrid, the large 16″ rear wheels combined with a front swivel wheel offer the perfect mix between the versatility of a day-to-day stroller and a high-octane running stroller. The front wheel is easily “locked” for rough terrain, curbs or running with the flick of a simple latch. Quickly switching it back will allow the front wheel to swivel, giving fantastic maneuvering in tight places such as the grocery store or mall. The ride is super smooth with the patented all-wheel independent suspension, and the adjustable front wheel tracking will always keep you rolling straight. The 16″ air inflated pneumatic tires allow for all terrains, from sand and snow to trails to be covered without any issue and in comfort.
One of the most loved features of the Baby Jogger Summit XC is the full oversize canopy. It is the biggest and best canopy of any stroller on the market without a doubt. Not only is the canopy huge, it also has ventilation panels on both the back and side to allow for great air flow to cool your baby down on warm days. Other strollers, like the Bugaboo Cameleon, require you to buy the breezy canopy separately!
The lightweight aluminium frame (which is covered by a lifetime warranty) is fitted with universal brackets. These allow you to attach a snack tray, belly bar, car seat adapters, carrycot for a newborn or a jump seat for a sibling. The undercarriage basket is small-ish, but the back net pocket is large enough to fit a medium sized bag also. The optional universal parent console attaches to the handlebar and provides a cup holder, insulated cooler pouch and an additional storage pouch for a cell phone, keys or wallet.
The Baby Jogger Summit XC seat and 5 point harness are both well padded for your baby’s comfort. The seat reclines fully with a simple pull of the back strap, with the great oversize canopy still giving plenty of coverage even with the seat fully reclined. The Baby Jogger Summit XC seat has lots of room for your little one to grow since it has a weight capacity of 75 lbs. This weight capacity could mean it is the only stroller your baby needs until they no longer need to be in a stroller anymore, whereas other strollers such as Bugaboo have a weight capacity of 40 lbs meaning you will need to purchase another as your little one grows.
On top of the safe 5 point harness, the Baby Jogger Summit XC is safety certified by the Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association and comes with a brake on both the handlebar and the rear wheel axle. The positioning of the brake on the rear wheels also allows for a glider board to be easily attached so that another child can ride along too!
Collapsing for travel and storage is a breeze without having to fool around with the fussy folds that are notorious on jogging strollers. Just one quick pull on the strap in the center of the seat and it collapses in half! It even stands up folded, into a surprisingly compact package. If the wheels do need to be removed, the quick release clips make this a very painless and ultra quick task.
So if you are after a stroller that does it all you have found it in the Baby Jogger Summit XC, it provides exceptional performance and maneuverability on any terrain and can be purchased or compared to other strollers at this leading supplier.
