Since first isn't synchronized you don't have to shift from 2nd to first, but you will see grinding if you don't and you just came off moving. It takes a moment or two for the tranny to spin down. If you've been at a dead stop for a minute you can shift into first and go. If you haven't, a slide into second will sync things up then you can go into 1st without incident.

Also, if you shift into neutral and release the clutch you'll see grinding because that'll start the spinning up again.
