I would add another field to my repeater, probably a true/false field to set display on/off. I would probably add some type of acf/validate_value filter to make sure that at least one row of the repeater is set to be shown because with them all set to not show the code I include would cause an infinite loop, but I would also build some kind of exit into the loop to prevent this as well.

$slide = array_rand($component_fields['slides']);
$slide = $component_fields['slides'][$slide];
$count = 0;
// use count to make sure we only to this X number of times to prevent infinite loop
// and test display true/false field
while ($count<10 && !$slide['true_false_field_name']) {
  // count is < 10 and this slide should not be shown
  // select a different slide
  $slide = array_rand($component_fields['slides']);
  $slide = $component_fields['slides'][$slide];
  $count++;
}
