If I do what I did before by quickly letting go of the clutch, car will jerk violently lol.

The hill I attempted to go up was this one. ?what is the degrees of Oxford Street hill of white rock, BC??

I made it up twice but spun like crazy in first gear into 2nd gear and crawling up because if I shifted, I would stall. In the rain too..
Letting the clutch out slowly wont hurt it, as long as youre not applying heavy throttle as you do so. Does your car have rev hang? My car shifts 1-2nd the worst because of it, usually I have to push the clutch and wait .5sec for the rpm's to drop before letting go of the clutch. Sometime i'll just slowly let go of the clutch and as I do that the rev's drop and my engine and wheels match each other.
