I'm sure that's the clinical term for it.
I used to have no problems with drops. But this spring I crashed hard on one that I came up short on. Then a month later I had a near miss where I lost control and nearly yeeted myself into the woods after a hard landing. Now I just can't bring myself into hitting drops at all, at least nothing beyond the lowest consequence rollable height drops. Did a recent trip to Snowshoe and I found myself going way out of my way to avoid any drops. How do I overcome this mental block? I'm not trying to hit anything massive (I'm fine with never hitting cupcake for instance), I just want to be able to do at least moderate ones again. It's like there's a thing in my mind saying "absolutely not" whenever I approach one. Mind you, I have very little problem with jumps or steep chunk. I know practice on lower consequence stuff will help, but I'm still not sure how to start breaking past the mental block.
