I found these pics on gymnasticscoaching.com (for which I now get a malware warning, so visit on your own risk).
Has anyone here used those?
*edit:found a video

In the blog post they said:
Both are intended to simulate (somewhat) a handstand on Rings.The first unit is home made. The round parallettes are commercially available. Coach Jim Rand bought them at the WOGA Men’s competition last year.
yeah. just do them on the real rings though if possible.
I couldn't see a non-gym owner needing these. The rings are as much as one needs at home.
because the piviot point is different, i think it feels much different than the rings... fun to play on but didn't help my ring handstand much...

That's exactly what I thought.
Found a video of them in use. Looks pretty challenging.
