A tipper occurs when one hits the [[Sandbag]] with the tip of the bat during a bat smash. It deals 20% [[damage]] to the bag and sends it farther than other bat swings (a close hit or midhit). This is the usual method of finishing Sandbag, unless the character has an attack that is stronger such as a [[Falcon Punch]].
