So, on a 1st -> 2nd shift you would;
Clutch in
Shift to neutral
Clutch out
Blip throttle
Clutch in
Shift to second

That's the double clutching technique used on older cars that don't have synchros in the tranny. Totally useless on a synchronized tranny, unless you are a writer for the screenplay "The Fast and the Furious" and are looking for some somewhat technical line for your automotively impaired actors to speak outloud.
