I don't understand "didn't go all the way down."

If you don't have any pull-ups, I suggest you focus on them. Give it a week. You won't lose your chin-ups-- they tend to be a bit easier because of some additional bicep/delt recruitment.

I meant I didn't do dead hang pullups each rep. Ok, will try that.

Ok. But in both dead hand and kipping pullups you still need to go to full extension at the bottom-- it isn't a complete lockout at the elbows/maintain tension to protect yourself/ elbows can be a bit soft, but you do go "all the way down."
