Depending on the instructor, I’ve been given two subs for high rep ring dips. (Given that I have some, um, form issues after a few.) One is with a band strung between the rings on which you rest your knees. The other sub is to do a negative-pull up under your own power and then lower slowly with as much resistance as possible.
I feel like I do more for my form and developing the stabilizers on the negatives, but curious if anyone has a strong opinion on the best sub.

Thanks.
Considering the high reps involved in this one I would be concerned about injury using negatives… ask Malia about it. For someone like yourself, who has been doing this for a while, you’d probably be Ok but you never know.
My box uses the bands… I hate them. They’re awkward and I always end up snapping myself in the face. That said, I would likely do as many rounds as I could unassisted and then move to a band to keep the WOD rolling.
pull-ups and ring dips…sounds like coach wants more muscle up virgins to pop that cherry. 30 mins ...wow thats a new one on me. with these AMRAP i’m usually pretty worn out after 10 mins. But here we go…at least tomorow is rest day.

Amazingly, I didn’t fail on the dips for a single round. Granted, these were NOT ring dips, but I am pleased with the progress.
