Since then, Tabron has added a more than a few awards to his trophy case, including Gravity Games gold in ‘02 and seven X Games medals – silver in 2007 and ‘09 in addition to five bronzes along the way.

After taking fourth place in the year-end Dew Cup standings in both 2005 and ‘06, Tabron claimed his best finish up to that point, closing out the ‘07 season in second place in the race for the Dew Cup and capturing his first silver medal at the X Games. With three third-place finishes on the 2008 Dew Tour, Tabron closed out the circuit in third place overall.In 2009

in 2009, Tabron returned to the Dew Tour, claiming second place in Vert in Chicago, and finishing sixth in overall standings.
