DOUBLE JOGGING STROLLERS

BASIC FEATURES
basic features for the passenger

Sleepy angels: In terms of double jogging strollers, it is very likely that the smooth ride will lull your little passengers to sleep, which begs for seat angles that afford comfy sleeping conditions. If you have a newborn(s), you must have seats that recline flat as infants are unable to support their own head weight, which also means you should expect some sort of supportive head and neck padding on the seat. Keep in mind that pediatricians recommend against running with an infant before the sixth month. Design-wise, there are a few double joggers out there that have tandem seating, but all of the top of the line double joggers are side-by-side for the obvious reason that the weight distribution is easier to push and control with one hand while running.

One smooth ride: Fundamental to the double jogging stroller design is the pneumatic tires and suspension, which allow parents to smoothly maneuver over whatever surfaces they encounter while running, walking, and hiking. But don't expect any double jogging stroller to glide over large-pot holes, boulders or any other unnecessarily rugged surfaces. In principle, a double jogger is designed to effectively handle grass, sand, gravel, woodchips, dirt and stone paths, and any other surfaces conditions runners might be willing to take a baby along for the ride.

Whether the weather: The double jogging stroller you purchase should effectively protect your children's delicate skin and eyes from direct sunlight (no matter what angle the sun). Unfortunately, this is no quality control process for stroller canopies, so make sure and test out the canopy beforehand to ensure maximum protection. And while you're at it, look for a good peek-a-boo (peace of mind) window inset in the canopy. For those hard core runners, there are many double jogging strollers sold with attachable rain-covers, some of which also include a snuggly winter boot.
