In the case of Gary Weighill of Canada they have lasted since the 1970s - for about THIRTY YEARS! Gary has the original heads for his four 1970s' Valje® congas & Valje® bongo & none of these - 6 heads - have ripped or torn!!!
(Gary on his 1970's Valjes!)
Another example of the durability of LP's® heads comes from LP's Cosmic Percussion® wood conga - one that Artdrum.com owns. Greg, from Artdrum®,has owned this drum for nearly ten years without needing to replace the head; and he plays this drum almost daily!
