From the Speedy2 manual (from AdvantagePB):

Parabolic Ramping
--Undeniably the most advanced ramping logic ever created. Unlike percentage ramping, parabolic ramping is dynamic; always changing. The faster you shoot, the faster it ramps. The result is super smooth ramping you have to feel to believe.
I believe that would qualify as illegal ramping these days. The Speedy2 also features unique activation codes. It was basically the original cheater board/chip, and is one of the main reasons why controlled ramping has now been legalized basically everywhere.

Incidentally, parabolic means either "resembling or expressed by parables" or "having the form of a parabola", so I don't know exactly how it relates to ramping in any area besides marketing. A parabola being a "Plane curve formed by the intersection of a right circular cone and a plane parallel to an element of the cone or by the locus of points equidistant from a fixed line and a fixed point not on the line" and a parable being "A simple story illustrating a moral or religious lesson"
