They're using kinetic/smooth scrolling, which is included in theme they're using from Okler. If you look in the JS, you'll see:
Plugin Name: smoothScroll for jQuery.

Inertial/kinetic scrolling is incredibly frustrating when implemented in JS. On my Mac, sure, if I swipe my fingers and let go, I expect the OS to emulate a free-spinning scroll wheel. But when it's emulated in JS, there's no way for the code to know whether I lifted my fingers, so it defaults to making the page skid around uncontrollably, when I intend to quickly swipe - while keeping my fingers down at the end - to go to a precise offset in the page.
It's visually a cute a effect, but I have no idea how anyone thinks that it makes for anything other than an utterly infuriating user experience.
