SRM on upshifts is kind of tricky - you still need to apply throttle, but not every time or on every shift. You really just need to get a feel for the car and the momentum of the car... I know it sounds weird, but I think that's pretty much how driving manual generally is: it's a lot more about the driver's feel and intuition, than it is about the mechanical aspects (i.e. having to shift at a specific RPM or exactly how many centimeters the clutch catch point is from the ground).
