Comme-on, break out the training journals, or dust the cobwebs from your mind, let's hear it:
what's the most dips you did in one setting?
(I consider a full dip to take the elbow past 90 degree's at least.)

One day a russian student came into the gym and I was doing dips.
He said, "We used to do 50 of those in Moscow!"
"What," I said, "you never did 50 dips in your life!"
"Yah, it's true," he said.
The veins were popping out of my head just thinking about arguing with this 11th grader, when I thought "to hell with that," and said "Ok, let's try them now and see who can do the most?"
He was 17, about 170LBS, and got 16.
I was 43, weighed 245, and got 42.
Man, those were the days!

Give it up, yunguns!
 
Your right bro those were the days, Without weight on me I was hitting 40 but I haven't tried to dip in quite some time since I've made my come back after the 2 knee replacemnts and switched gyms..
 
Many years ago I was a dipping fool with heavy weight. A couple times without weight I went for max reps, my best in the zone was 110 in a row.
 
Never tried to see how many dips, but I can do 28 reps with 225lbs flat bench. Got the vid to prove it. :D

I'll give dips a shot though...
 
2 sets of 25 for warm up then work up to 135 lbs for sets of 10 at a bodyweight of 210.
 
All are very impressive! Especially the video shovel has posted I've seen if it the same one I seen posted on CM.. Can't remember it was either one of you or Lifeguard one? Either way it was awesome!
 
funny this thread comes up the other day my training partner and I did exactly this, see our max reps for dips, I hit the 90's first set after a heavy chest/tri day. I usually have a belt with 4 wheels for dips

LG got 40, 69er has 30, hawk has 28 too. I think if LG did full reps his max would be alot lower. Lol
