I've done it before. I either go and try it again or I start with somewhat lower drops until I get my confidence up again.

Don't worry you'll be doing that drop without even thinking about it after a while.

By the way how big was it?

my advice is just pick yourself back up and try it again. freeriding and dh ridding is all about conquering fears and advacing your ridding. you cant do that by not getting back on the bike.

Try and relax (lol) when you lauch so you do not tighten up and overcompensate. You might try leaving a finger on your back brake, you can grab that as you land and that will keep you off of your ass.
