I just purchased a DJI gimbal for use with my iPhone, are there restriction on its use in the park, considering the ban on selfie sticks?

A lot of vloggers use gimbals, so you should be good.
The ban is mainly for extending sticks, selfie style sticks or large tripods that don’t fit into a small bag.
You can take in a head mounted go pro harness in should you wish.
You can also have hours of fun at the gate discussing the pros and cons of the rules with 2 different cast members and a supervisor.

You cannot bring a gerbil into the parks; unless it is a legal support animal.

Unless you just want to document some of your friends and family id say just watch the amazing 4k videos already on youtube and not film everything including rides.. but thats me. All of the gimbals and people recording everything has gotten a bit annoying. Especially on a dark ride with their screen all the way turned up. Between vloggers and people who want to record everything, i think they should be banned along with phones on rides.
That’s why I paid extra for a camera (not phone) with a viewfinder.

Selfie sticks and the like are allowed as long as they don't extend.
“Selfie sticks” are on the prohibited list.
Grip handles the same size as your fist are permitted.

youre also the exception and create wonderful documentaries.
And I dont mean this towards the poster but all parks and concerts have gotten really bad with everyone having to record every second of their lives and will prob never rewatch any of it. Instead it ruins others immersion and enjoyment.
Thank you. And yes!

Its the long/extending kids that are not permitted.
You can have one that is small where you're more using it for stabilization purposes than to get your phone/camera further from you.
“Selfie sticks” are not permitted.
Something the size of your fist like a grip is.

Yes. Many things are advertised as selfie sticks but are more like a grip size and do not extend.
Those type of selfie sticks are allowed....
The company differentiates between “selfie stick” and “grip”. As per this document they are 2 different things. One is allowed, one is not.

I understand what it says.
What I'm telling you is that if you go to amazon and type in selfie stick you'll see all kinds and some are more like a grip style WHICH IS ALLOWED.
