The term "tipper" can be used as a general term of reference for hitting with the tip of an attack, but is usually used in terms of the Home Run Contest and a select few attacks.

Tipper (HRC)

A tipper is a tactic in which, as one would expect, one hits the sandbag with the tip of the bat. This will deal 20% damage to the bag and send it quite a bit further than a close hit or midhit. For characters without attacks that send the bag further than the bat, this is the usual method of finishing.

An aerial tipper is simply a tipper in which one hits the bag while it is still in the air. Sends the bag slightly further than a normal tipper.

Tipper (other)

Outside of HRC, the tipper is usually used in context with Marth. Marth's sword deals more damage and more knockback if it contacts the opponent with only its tip, and generally has more combo potential as well.

The term "tipper" can also be used with Bowser's f-smash, Roy's sword, and a few other attacks.
