[Skin Idea] Surfer Nami

Hello! The name’s DI The Second (AKA DeathInvoker in LAS, DI The First is myself after the transfer), and I present to you a skin idea I had for my favorite champ and wanted to share. Introducing Surfer Nami!

As you can see, she’s still a Marai/mermaid, and her looks are similar to Classic Nami, but of course, she's equipped for the summer with her swimsuit, sunglasses and her surfboard (which has a small icon of her main weapon: the Tidecaller's Staff). She also has a Philo Stone pendant as a bonus. If the surfboard changes her silhouette too much, a surfy staff can work too. Thanks to CaptainMårvelous for the idea.
For animations, my current idea is that she could surf when reaching 450+ MS (her Hasted Run). If not, she would swim like surfers reaching the waves. Her dance would be a Hawaiian dance.
Finally, Nami’s abilities will suffer some changes. Aqua Prison will still be a bubble, but with some beach ball touches and a volleyball-like shot, Ebb and Flow makes her throw a frisbee (with Riot's logo for tons of damage!), Tidecaller’s Blessing gives some fruit to an ally champion with juicy explosions on hit (idea by ALEXKOND from LAS), and finally, looks like hitting the land with the surfboard still summons Tidal Waves, but they can have watery riders like Urf, Chomper, Surfer Singed or even Nami herself! (idea by Riot SlackZ from LAS)
