Exactly how do you double clutch a stopped engine? The only way to RPM match to zero is to hold the clutch in for a few seconds before shifting and let it spin down.

Anyway, here's what I do to bump start. If I'm going 20mph or above, I put it in 5th, set my throttle to where I think RPMs should be in 5th and let out the clutch quickly but smoothly. I never pop it, it's hard on pretty much everything under the hood.
