One spelling does double duty for past and participle, and the final p doubles before -ed because tip ends in a short vowel and a single consonant. Many senses of tip are ergative, so the form works with or without an object: the wind tipped the boat, or the boat tipped. The covering sense yields compound adjectives such as steel-tipped and felt-tipped, hyphenated before a noun.
