The best answers are always simple, sometimes… In the clarity of the early morning hours may I offer this? The person who invents fiberglass : inventor The person who makes fiberglass into cloth : inventor of fiberglass cloth The person who first uses fiberglass cloth on surfboards : innovator Same with foam, although if it happened today I bet somebody would “claim” inventing balsa wood. Simon Anderson invented the “thruster” tri-fin. But almost a decade earlier I rode a tri-fin made by Dick Brewer - single fin with two little, roundish side fins. Night and day difference in how you had to ride these two different boards. Maybe both are inventors, or maybe both are innovators. Toss the Bonzer in there for added merriment… As to ownership of ideas, well, that’s an economic and legal issue. If you have a patent, it belongs to you. If not, maybe the credit belongs to you. Sadly in the latter case you don’t really get to control that. Wwhen the pissing wars really heat up I sometimes think a lot of people would be happier if they could look at the design and building issues in surfing as if it were more like music. Someone else may have written the song, but each person can have their own arrangement, and everyone get some kind of credit.
Not an ethicist? That sounds like something an attorney would say. The next door neighbor is mad at you and he cuts your garden hose into little pieces. The local letter carrier goes mental and all your mail gets forwarded to Somalia. Someone trespasses on your property, vandalizes your home and steals your possessions. The perps then commit identity theft, assuming your name, social security number, accessing your credit cards. On and on and on. What part of “right and wrong” don`t you understand?

The horse gives it the right way. I read the lines like this in Pulp Fiction (if you remember right, Quentin or should I call you James,that is your real name is it not?) Do you read the bible brett? EZEKIAL 25/17 The righteous man is beset on all sides by the tyranny and selfishness of evil men. Bless it is he who in THE NAME OF GOODWILL AND CHARITY shepard the weak through the valley of darkness,for he is truly his brother’s keeper,and the finder of lost children. And I will STRIKE DOWN WITH GREAT vengeance AND FURIOUS ANGER those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers, And you will know my name is the Lord,when I lay my vengeance on thee. YO Jimmy, It basically means there are some of us out there that are blessed with god’s protection, because of the path we have taken; to preserve,instead of destroy,to heal instead of kill,to help instead of hurt,and if you fuck with these indiviuals God’s going fuck you up!How do I know?I live it hommey. The pale horse reference isn’t so much you should fear retribution,it’s more like a reckoning.Samuel Hey jimmy meet me at the 360 6p.

You are both ignorant and wrong at the top of your voice! Dick Brewer DID NOT invent the “ELEPHANT GUN”,the term is credited to Buzzy Trent. The gun design was in full flower before Brewer ever thought of building surfboards.

Right on shaper of 45 years.Seems to me that maybe Greg Noll shaped these boards or maybe Wayne Land…not sure.We used to see Buzzy Trent riding one of these boards back in the sixties.What happened to Inter Island Surfbooards??
