Teams of employees at firms innovate. Scientists and engineers at universities and research institutions innovate. Inventors at private labs innovate. Regular people consume. Wrong!

In this paper I describe the contributions made by user innovators in the windsurfing, skateboarding, and snowboarding industries. © 2006 Springer-Verlag New York.
