The Symmetry Skyndeep® Conga drumhead is our most versatile Conga drumhead in terms of fit.
The Symmetry Skyndeep Conga drumhead is our most versatile Conga drumhead in terms of fit. It features a graphic infusion of pigment into a polyester surface, making it uniquely attractive and providing a weather-resistant drumhead with warm tones that increases sound, volume, and projection in any environment. The Crimplock hoop increases stability and tuning range. Symmetry fits more Conga models from various manufacturers in the industry.
These codes indicate the inner diameter (ID) of the aluminum ring, which determines how the head fits inside the drum’s counter hoop. D1 = smallest fit, D4 = largest fit The crown size (playing surface) stays the same—only the ID changes to match various drum brands.
What's the difference between Fiberskyn, Nuskyn and Skyndeep? FIBERSKYN® provides a superb, authentic drum sound for maximum projection, lively overtones, and slap tones that are easy on your hands. It is the brightest sound of all three Remo film technologies. With superior construction, the low maintenance, weather resistant FIBERSKYN drumheads will enhance your drumming experience. In fact, they are the world’s most widely recorded synthetic world percussion drumheads and are used by most top-professional drummers in the world. It produces ultimate volume with overtones drummers love, and controlled by muting with their hands. LIVELY OVERTONES EASY TO PLAY BRIGHT MID-RANGE TONES NUSKYN® sounds natural, warm, and full-bodied with enhanced low and mid-range frequencies, without any lingering high pitched overtones. NUSKYN® resembles the performance of an animal skin expanding the sound response spectrum dramatically. This means heavy hitting drummers that are accustomed to playing the animal skin will get that same response needing to pull the tone and volume out of the drum. "You know who you are. Manos de Piedra." QUICK DECAY OVERTONES SOUNDS LOOKS & FEELS LIKE ANIMAL SKIN ENHANCED LOW AND MID-RANGE FREQUENCIES SKYNDEEP® is the graphic infusion of pigment into a polyester surface making it uniquely attractive while maintaining the integrity of a great sounding drumhead. SKYNDEEP is weather resistant, producing warm mid-range tones, increases sound, volume and projection similar to the FIBERSKYN without the added fiber layer. This is all around the friendliest drumhead film for hand drummers that want a traditional sound and lifesaving hand care. Playing Skyndeep, you’ll notice your hand velocity is less than playing Nuskyn. This film technology is also very durable during transportation and from the occasional scrapes and bumps.

Symmetry is an improvement on the older Crimplock construction. Crimplock refers to the aluminum flesh-hoop crimped over the film that seats inside the channel (of the flesh-hoop) with glue. The Symmetry type is the addition of symmetrical folds around the collar that conform to the bearing edge as you tension so it's easier on your hands and provides increased projection (better contact between head and drum), tunability (how the film stretches and seats), and durability (as the head conforms, there's more tension on the collar and less stress directly on the flesh-hoop).
