2-3 has to be the easiest shift ever...if you just press the shifter up it will automatically line up for the #3 gate so I dont even see how u can miss it.
if you are aggressive and not careful, i find i push out of 2 quick enough that the shifter has enough momentum to swing past the 3 gate and you could end up in 5 which is what i have accidentally done a few times in the past. i have not done it in a while since now i am conscious of it.

3-4 to me is the easiest shift ever, just bring it straight down. my most immaculate shift.

and i, as someone said earlier, avoid the 2-1 like the plague.

I use to not like the 4-5 shift, but I am pretty good at it now. My favorite shift is actually the 3-4 shift. I don't like any diagonial downshifting, I try to avoid it.

Do you feel like the OP is asking you to pick your least favorite child?
