What is the technique for shifting with no clutch? I can see how you might down-shift, although this would be a rough ride, but what about upshifting? Get the engine to high rpm and then let off the throttle while shifting?

I had an over eager left foot coming to a stop and went from second to first before I had the clutch in. I lost a little rubber and it was hard on the wrists. I can't imagine riding like this on purpose.
