I will do the tip signal if there is a pass that is out of bounds and not everyone sees the tip by the defender. I will even point to the defender that tipped the ball as well.

Rut,
I advise new officials to avoid the "foul tip" signal.
My reasoning is that although everyone knows you were on that play, then what should it mean when you do not use the signal the next time, ...that you missed it?
["Last time he knew it was tipped, but this time he isn't sure"]
I suggest merely pointing the direction, "they" will believe you, or not, and regardless, the ball is still going "That way."

The NF actually approved the signal for cases of a pass that comes from lead's corner that is tipped and goes to the back court. Lead is supposed to come up with the foul tip signal to aide trail's call for a back court violation.
It was in the illustrated POE booklet the year before last, I believe.
