Similarly, don't go straight from 3rd to 6th. I still do it sometimes but I wait a good long time in neutral to let the input side spool down. If it doesn't immediately slip into gear with a light touch, you're not waiting long enough.
Or just don't skip gears, period.

This^^^^! I personally never double clutch so I forget to tell people that.
The joys of trying to type how to drive.
