Blipping is the same as goosing or revving the engine with short quick twists of the throttle from idle.

Also, is it really a good idea to downshift into 1st gear? I've always been told that was a bozo no-no. I've tried it at times rolling at very slow speeds to unlock stuck gears to no avail. I end up slightly letting out the clutch [click], everything is find.

My T used to do that too. After I came to a stop I would not be able to downshift.
I 'worked around' the problem by changing my riding style. Actually, my workaround was suggested as a defensive riding style change I learned in the advanced rider MSF course.

As I approached an intersection, I would slow and downshift one gear at a time. By the time I came to a complete stop I was in first.
