More Downshifting...

Here's my attempt at describing the technique for double
(de)clutching...


Left Foot				Right Foot				Shifter		Time 

press clutch in			off gas			in gear	    	|
																	|
											shift into neutral   |
																	|
let clutch out													|
																	|
							blip gas								|	
																	|
press clutch in							select lower gear		|
																	|
let clutch out			resume gas								V


The word "gas" was used instead of throttle to save space. The passage
of time is approximate. To heel and toe, add braking with the front of
the right foot as needed.

Anyone is welcome to add corrections/modifications to this.

HTH!
