Yeah you get the idea, is this lack of safety equipment, or a shit pedal, or just me hopping incorrectly? It's always my front ready leg.

Pedals that don’t do that won’t grip. Get yourself some shin guards
DMR V6. But with that being said, plastic pins still suck
Lizard skin shin guards are a life changer.
That is a solid shinner, well done! But yeah shin pads and not slipping the pedals (not being a dick haha, just the obvious fix. But sometimes it just happens).
These bad boys will stop that.

No, but I can recommend some shin and whip guards tho: https://triple8.com/products/exoskin-shin-whip-guard-pads?variant=32226305212553
Eventually your shins just become a map of old pedal slip scars, metal or plastic it always hurts.
Been riding in pants the last few years and that has been enough to keep me from getting bloody.
