I have a question about shifting without the clutch. One of my friends told me that you can shift without it hurting the clutch, like if you were in a wheely and you needed to shift. I don't see how ppl can reach the clutch and shift in a wheely. BTW I have a Warrior. Thanks for any replies in advanced.

It is possible to reach the clutch while on a wheely. You are standing right?
But to answer your question about shifting with out the clutch. In the short term (once in a while) It should not cause any damage. BUt you do risk the chance of grinding or missed shifts which can cause your wallet some problems.
I know my banshee does not like to shift well without the clutch..at least while doing a wheely.
I would try to make a habit of using the clutch whenever you could.
