Is Cabrinha testing a "secret" new model for 2012?

This photo is being circulated on various kitesurfing sites - but no info. Is it real? or a Photoshop hoax? Anyone knows?

After owning a Park, I can see why they are exploring the 3 strut set up.

I wonder if it will still have the auto-tree-landing system.
Best part of a cab.

maybe they have dug out some old design drawings- it looks a bit like a cab nitro.

If its anything like the Naish Park they are going down the right track. Im sure Pat from Cab is working on a great kite here.

I liked what Cab did with the Nomad last year. But the Park actually water relaunches and generates more power in light winds.

I much prefer "Open C kites" to fly (Park, RPM, Nomad, C4...) to me they feel so much more lively but still have the manners and ease of use that their cousin Bow have.

Love proto kites graphics white and fresh!

Flights booked for a week or so in Hawaii in late May/early June, so we will know if its real and how it flies soon enough.
Very curious, looks good.
