Look atbyje post post from Paul, of the DMR Vault pedals.
You can also get flat pinned pedals that have an SPD system, so you get choices of what you want for different conditions.

Pins are little metal screws that stick up out of the pedal to maximize the traction between your foot and your shoe.

Pro Downhill riders (and many casual people like myself) want to maximize their grip on the pedal, without doing clipless, Five Ten which have a special rubber compound that's extra grippy on the pedal. Mine:
