I just did my first drop ever on my hardtail mtb! It’s not like this is my first time in the air on something I jump a lot on my snowboard and stuff but i felt pretty good about this drop apart from I lost my left pedal when I landed and got a nice gash in my shin now. Any tips on keeping my pedals on my bike or just in general? This is my second full season of mtb so I’m still pretty new.
My first drop! Looking for tips

Apologies meant to say keep my feet on the pedals not pedals on the bike 😅
maybe some better grip shoes or just press ur feet a little bit more into the peddals.apart from that send bigger drops your form is good and that drop is nothing for you.
cool, i have an HT too, it’s not too rough on landing ?
Your form was perfect, both wheels on the ground at the same time, nice. I encourage you to hit bigger drops because once you hit bigger ones, you’ll realize that they aren’t that bad, even if you have a hard tail.
