VIBE
CHECK

A real-talk mental health check-in — in language that makes sense on and off the mountain.

What is the Vibe Check?

Your mental health moves.
Just like conditions on the mountain.

Some days you drop in feeling locked, loose and dialled. Other days the conditions are rough, your head's not right, and nothing flows. That's not weakness — that's being human. The question is: do you know where you're at right now?

STOKED FEELING OFF STRUGGLING COOKED

The Mental Health Continuum — you can be anywhere on it at any time

STOKED

Steady moods. Good energy. Showing up. This is your green run — conditions are great, you're riding well and life feels manageable.

FEELING OFF

Something's shifted. You're still riding but it's not flowing. Irritable, lower energy, skipping things you'd normally enjoy. Worth paying attention to.

STRUGGLING

It's heavy. Anger, anxiety, withdrawing from people, not sleeping. This isn't just a rough day — something needs real attention right now.

COOKED

Running on empty. You can't do the basic stuff and everything feels impossible. You deserve real support — and it's available right now.

Why does this matter?

You can move in both directions

Mental health isn't fixed. You can go from STOKED to STRUGGLING — and back again. The key is catching where you're at early enough to do something about it before it gets worse.

Awareness is the first move

Most people don't realise they've drifted until they're deep in the red. A regular check-in — even a 60-second one — can be the difference between catching it early and letting it build.

Action gets you back to green

Every zone has a move. Sometimes it's just staying active. Sometimes it's talking to someone. Sometimes it's getting professional help. Knowing your zone means you know your next step.

The Jamie Blain Memorial Foundation built this tool for the snowboard community — because snowboarding teaches us that conditions change, wipeouts happen, and you always get back up.

Take 60 seconds.
Check your vibe.

No account. No judgment. No wrong answers. Just an honest look at where you're at — and what to do about it.
