You need to rev match (blip) in order to save clutch and gear wear. There are vids on youtube teaching technique.

I don't downshift in street driving, brakes are cheaper than a clutch.
At the track I downshift into corners by rev matching (heel/toe) and straight from gear to gear, no neutral.
Sometimes I don't match revs quite right, sometimes to high and sometimes to low.
