Default 1st gear snap?

this only happens maybe once or twice like every three days but sometimes when i go to shift out of 1st gear, as soon as i push in the clutch it snaps right out of 1st. i don't know what might be causing this. does any one know?

i also get this, but it doesn't bother me... seems like the gear kicks out at high rpms... but no grinding so oh well

I have been told that this isnt an issue, the car kicks out of first gear because the engine i revving down. Next time it happens, notice if your engine is revving up or down. My money is on down.
