I received a community pot of seedlings that were labeled Dypsis cabadae. The one in the photo was planted from a 1 gallon, December 2014. The palm has exploded in growth. Anyone have an idea of what this is? The twisted appearance of the fronds is from Matthew and not a characteristic of the palm.

If I'm looking at the correct palm, I would say cabadae x madagascariensis..

I like your suggestion.  The leaflet spacing on both D cabadae and D pembana is very regular, while the photo below definitely shows some pairings of leaflets. The leaflets in the photo also appear to be coming off the rachis in different planes rather than in a uniform plane.  The trunk does closely resemble cabadae and pembana.  Based on those attributes, I can buy into the suggestion of cabadae x madagascariensis.   Perhaps a  couple of other shots of the full mature leaves might help to clarify what you have.

100% agree, there is quite a few of these hybrids in SE QLD Australia and they look very similar to this when young and grow like rockets.
