RemoCrimplock Symmetry Skyndeep D1 Conga Drum Head Calfskin Graphic 11 in.
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
An 11-inch Skyndeep conga head with a printed calfskin look and Crimplock mounting. For conga players replacing a head on a Crimplock-compatible drum.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Quinto or conga players wanting a natural skin look with synthetic stability
- Outdoor and humid gigs where real calfskin shifts pitch
- Players who tune often and want consistent response
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Drums with traditional tucked or tacked heads — the mount won't fit
- Anyone who wants the exact feel and give of real hide
- Drum kit players — this is a hand-drum head, not a batter head
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Crimplock mounting
The head clips into a Crimplock collar. Your drum must already use that system or it will not seat.
Detail 03
Skyndeep synthetic film
Holds pitch through humidity and temperature swings that would loosen a natural skin head.
Detail 04
Calfskin graphic
The hide look is printed on the film. Appearance only — it does not change how the head sounds.
Detail 05
Symmetry construction
Even tension distribution around the collar, so tuning at one lug pulls the rest more predictably.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Confirm your drum uses Crimplock hardware — this will not fit tucked heads
- 02Head only. No hoop, hardware, or tuning wrench included
- 03Measure the drum's playing surface diameter; conga sizes vary between makers
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will this fit my conga?
Only if the drum uses Remo's Crimplock mounting system and takes an 11-inch head. Traditional congas with tucked or tacked skins are not compatible.
02Does it sound like real calfskin?
It is a synthetic film with a printed hide graphic. It holds tuning far better than natural skin, but the feel and decay are its own, not a copy of hide.
03Is 11 inch a quinto size?
Yes, 11 inches falls in the quinto range. Measure your shell to be sure — sizing varies by maker.
04Do I need special tools to change it?
You need the tuning wrench for your drum's lugs. None is included here.
