I use the "tipped" signal, and I think its a horrible habit. The main problem is that from where i'm standing the play might look like a tip, but in reality from another angle its a foul, and my partner calls it. It looks horrible when both people make different calls. If the "tip" should be used, it should be used immediately after you blow the whistle for an out of bounds call, indicating that the ball was last tipped. Otherwise, common sense dictates that if there's no foul you won't call anything.
