Did you look at the photo on the site he linked to? It was rediculous and they *definitely* don't bounce like that.
I'm not sure I've ever seen anyone demonstrate that they bounce at all, or roll along the top- if they did that would seriously ruin backspin. They would have to more slide than roll as the backspin isn't that fast,
I'm not sure how you can believe air doesn't escape around the bb - the Orga "sell" is that they simply allow more and create a larger cushion. Fluid dynamics tells us that air will be higher pressure than what's in front of the bb making it "surf" along avoiding contact.
Anyway myself and others have found no measurable improvement over decent quality barrels so I highly doubt the claim.
