Indian Wells / Miami tennis nets for men's events?

Anybody know who makes these nets that the men are playing? It looks like the men at the 2011 Indian Wells and Miami events are now playing with a plastic/nylon webbing type net that reminds me of the orange plastic net/fencing you find at construction sites? This might be the case for all ATP World Tour men's events this year (or maybe just Master's).

This new net at these events is definitely NOT the same braided-rope style nets found everywhere else (i.e. Edwards 40L)? Thanks for whatever information anyone can provide. Although probably alot heavier, I get the feeling this heavier, plastic type net would be alot more durable and weather resistent.....maybe something worth exploring for my high school courts. Thanks everyone. - Mike, Greenwood, IN

Before everyone starts going off on me for not putting this thread in the equipment forum. I put the question here because it would get the most visibility from those users watching the Miami event. Thanks for being kind.
