A year old clutch sould not slip at all. Mine is 5 years old and is 
still good as new. You might want to check that the throw out bearing is 
not riding on the pressure plate. Too long of a clutch slave rod, 
incorrectly set pedal rod (on pre 67s) or maybe a bent release fork.
It's just a tough call to look inside and see if the release bearing is 
riding on the plate. Flashlight thru the fork hole or if you can get to 
it, thru the top inspection plug.
