Although Blue Alliance was a small shop, it was well known as the team always successfully competed in the Powell Quarter Master tournaments, held at the Powell Peralta Skate Park in Goleta California. Even at the young age of 13, Jeron was known in the valley as one of the best skaters around.
He was known for having incredible "popular," which is a term used to describe his ability to get the skateboard high off the ground through ollying and other various techniques.
Jeron also had incredible control over his skateboard at a young age. In fact, he was one of the first skaters to master the switch 360 flip which remained one of his signature tricks throughout his career.
Wilson met professional skateboarder, Salman Agah, who saw his potential and helped Jeron become part of the Real skateboards team Jeron made his debut on the Blind team in a Plan B video part that included a "friends" section that featured the Blind team
After the demise of World Industries, Jeron was recruited to skate for Girl Skateboards which quickly gained the reputation for being the best skateboard team in the world.
With the help of Tim Gavin, Jeron obtained a shoe sponsorship with DVS Shoes (formerly the DVS Shoe Company). Wilson had many amazing video parts for all these companies and gained the confidence of his fellow professionals and many ambitious skaters throughout the world.
This was an incredible accomplishment because the Blind Skateboard team was known to have the best riders in the world such as Guy Mariano. As of 2012, Wilson is no longer sponsored by DVS Shoes and is a part of owner of the skateboard/streetwear brand—founder, Nick Tershay, has stated that a shoe line will eventually be launched.
