How old is the car? If it's new the gear change needs a few miles to loosen up. It also needs to warm up before it gets slick through the gate, say 10 minutes of driving.
Could be technique as you're going across the gate (bottom left to mid top), but you can eliminate that by letting someone you trust is experienced with manual shift have a go or popping the car into the dealer. Doesn't should like the symptoms of the clutch issue though.
