Any tips on down shifting from 9 to 8?

Hello all, I'm in class and the last issue I need to iron out before testing is downshifting to 8th gear from 9th. The soft wall is so subtle that it's difficult for me to tell when I've crossed it. Today I tried shifting slowly to let the stick reset so I could push it straight back into 8, but still wound up in 10th.

Any tips and tricks on how to find 8th atet appreciated.
