The brand is known for offering batucada percussion with a well-balanced weight-to-strength ratio, and this model clearly emphasizes lightness without sacrificing projection or reliability-an essential criterion both in rehearsals and parades.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho This Repinique Is For\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis 8-inch repinique is designed for \u003cstrong\u003ebatucada\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003esamba reggae\u003c\/strong\u003e percussionists seeking an easy-to-carry instrument, especially if you play standing, dance, or move frequently.

This choice improves rigidity and limits unwanted vibrations while promoting more homogeneous resonance. The entire setup is designed for intensive use: \u003cstrong\u003emetal hoops\u003c\/strong\u003e with black epoxy finish and \u003cstrong\u003e5 tension rods of 315 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e ensure stable tuning and consistent tension. The white heads (striking and resonant) at \u003cstrong\u003e0.250 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e provide a direct response, particularly appreciated in fast rhythms and repinique signals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSound Characteristics\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith its \u003cstrong\u003ebrushed aluminum shell\u003c\/strong\u003e, this repinique delivers a lively response and clear projection, typical of metal instruments used in samba: the attack is quick, the sound focused, and the presence in the ensemble immediate. Aluminum brings a sense of precision and clarity, very useful for carrying calls and variations even within a dense batucada.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003e0.250 mm white heads\u003c\/strong\u003e contribute to a more articulate strike and good sensitivity, allowing players to shift from powerful playing to more controlled nuances without losing stability. The welded shell, by limiting unwanted vibrations, helps maintain a cleaner timbre and better-controlled resonance, appreciated when seeking an instrument that remains musical even at high volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:2rem\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex:1 1 300px\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e8 inches (approximately 20.3 cm)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDepth (height)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e30 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003ebrushed aluminum\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e1 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003ewelded shell (not crimped)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTension rods\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e5 rods of 315 mm (reference GOP-SC-TR315)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNut reference\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eGOP-SC-SNUT\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHoops (rings)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003emetal\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHoop finish\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eblack epoxy\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex:1 1 300px\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeads\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003ewhite striking and resonant\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eapproximately 1.47 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eManufactured in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eBrazil\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Gope Percussion","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54361081872659,"sku":"253887","price":89.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/25c95c9a5e73ef5ec8224e6e93591177c15dbef2_GOP_REP0830AL_HBK.jpg?v=1787403235","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/gope-percussion-rep0830al-hbk-8-alu-repinique-black-hoop-30cm-depth-253887","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
