How does one navigate this website with a keyboard? The mouse wheel switches between the slides. The cursor key, page up/down, spacebar, don't work to navigate and the slide selectors at the right side can't be accessed using Tab as well. Also by tabbing to some of the links you break the page as the scroll is out of sync.

  Nor with a trackpad apparently.

    I didn't have a problem navigating the page with a trackpad. I agree that it is bad that you can't use arrow key and page keys do switch between slides, but I don't see the problem a trackpad would pose.

    Even with a mouse it's bad. If you have a free spinning scroll wheel scrolling a little can cause huge jump, but once you start scrolling faster the page will do opposite and not scroll at all (probably some kind of mechanism trying to prevent skipping over multiple pages). The fake scrollbar can't be used either and menu bar is useless because because who knows what each two letter pair means.

Load it without JavaScript, and with a `.swiper-container { overflow: unset; } .swiper-wrapper { display: unset; }` user stylesheet, and it’s perfect except for the contact form which they’ve implemented badly (the fields don’t belong to a form, and they’ve just put a click handler on the submit button, which basically turns into a form submission, just done AJAXily), but you couldn’t read the form field labels anyway so maybe that doesn’t matter.

The website is a disaster. Browser scrollbars don't work, page up/down keys don't work. There's some kind of barely contrasting menu of two-letter codes on the right-hand edge of the page. My day is too short to figure this out. Moving on....
