I concur, the header put me completely off the font, but after scrolling and seeing the examples of each weight I actually quite like it.
I personally don't mind the scrolling effect (there are much worse examples out there).

What I find really off-putting is that I scrolled and the page did not go down, not until letters completely flew away. I had the uncanny feeling I was required to work against the page.

To save someone else the searching time, this eye-catching text-scrolling effect is mostly made possible with the scrollorama jquery plugin

Yikes! That puppy nearly killed my browser (FF13, Ubuntu).

I usually like these demos, but effects break the act of scrolling DOWN a page, I'm not a fan.
Muddying up your own font by overusing a jquery gimmick? I hate to be that stodgy guy because I don't have a blanket hate of jquery but it doesn't seem like the best way of displaying a typeface :/
