1. UPPAbaby Ridge
The UPPAbaby Ridge is the first jogger specifically designed to be used on all terrains. You can find UPPAbaby strollers on city sidewalks and in playgrounds. The UPPAbaby ridge, launched in 2021, is an impressive competitor to BOB joggers such as the Alterrain Pro and Revolution Flex. The Ridge shares many of the same features as other joggers. However, it stands out for its mountain bike-style disc brake system and never-flat tires.
The Ridge seat is more upright than the seats on most other jogging strollers which makes it easier for kids to view their surroundings. The seat can be reclined into a variety of positions using the standard plastic toggle and two straps that are connected to the stroller's back. The canopy is large and can be extended to provide more coverage during long walks. However all terrain prams may get dirty on wet or muddy excursions.
The UPPAbaby Ridge's wheels are made of foam rather than air-filled. This means you do not need to carry additional tires or an air pump. The Ridge has an rear wheel lock that can be used for running, as well as a wheel on the front that can be adjusted to suit different terrains. Like other strollers that jog The UPPAbaby Ridge features a parking brake that can be activated by the user to stop the stroller if you need to take a break or catch your breath.
A large basket underneath the seat gives ample space for snacks, toys and other equipment for children. The canopy can be opened for more protection when it's sunny or closed for cloudy days. Parents will appreciate that the Ridge is compatible with UPPAbaby infant car seats as well as their Bassinet accessory (adapters are sold separately) for a travel system.
The UPPAbaby is very heavy and bulky when folded. The stroller can be difficult to transport on public transportation and is difficult to maneuver through narrow storefronts and shopping aisles.

The Cybex Avi is a fashionable and sleek jogger that is designed for runners who are looking for performance excellence. The lightweight stroller was designed for running and offers an effortless ride due to its tyres that are filled with air and rear suspension. It's also extremely easy to handle and folds up compactly.
It's compatible with all Cybex car seats which includes the Cot S carryycot and infant car seats which makes it a versatile travel system.

The ergonomic reclining seat is large enough to accommodate your growing child.
The stroller has a large sun canopy to shield your baby from sun and the wind. The stroller is available in a variety of colours and has reflective elements to increase visibility. The reverseable push bar is a great feature, as it allows you to maneuver and turn in tight turns on busy roads or uneven pathways.

The Avi Spin is great for roads and pavements but not so great on rocky, gravelly, or wet tracks. If you plan to use it in these types of terrain, we suggest purchasing a set of trail tyre to get the most efficient results.

4. Graco Expedition
The cheapest model we tested was the Graco Expedition is a great option for parents looking for an easy ride, and plenty of storage space. It folds down to a tiny size, and it self-stands to save space when not in use. Its wheels were easy to navigate around corners and roll smoothly across the various terrains we tried. It did not perform as well when going uphill in comparison to other wagons we tested.
The Expedition has a parent tray with dual cup holders as well as an enclosed storage area. It also comes with a child tray that has two cup holders along with a snack space and two cupholders. It accepts an adapter for Graco car seats to create an entire travel set. The canopy can be adjusted forward and backward, but is too small to provide much protection.
The Expedition features brake pedals that control both rear wheels. They're easy to release and activate, but the pedals' underside is rough on bare feet or sandals. In our runaway wagon test, the brakes were able to stop a stroller with weights, but first it skidded before it stopped. The model isn't equipped with a 3-point safety harness. The cushioned seat is extremely comfortable, but the recline is limited. It's not a great choice for runners.
