Are phone gimbals allowed at Disney?

The good news is that you can bring these on your Walt Disney World Resort vacation, as long as they don't extend! The Walt Disney World Resort rules state that selfie sticks and hand-held extension poles for phones or cameras aren't permitted. In my experience, since gimbals don't extend, you should be okay!

Thank you so much for stopping by with your question! Technically, the Walt Disney World Resort does not allow selfie sticks or hand-held extension poles for cameras and mobile devices (including stabilizers and tripods), which would unfortunately mean that your Gimbal device probably won't be let into the Theme Parks.

I'm happy to report that you are indeed free to bring a GoPro with you into the Disneyland Resort. Please note, though, that selfie sticks (hand-held extension poles) are found on the Prohibited Items List and therefore would not be allowed. If you use a non-extending handle for stabilization, that would be fine.
