[Skin Idea] Surfer Nami (Revival!)

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 (she has a shortboard in the concept), there are two options: it could be a smaller surfboard (maybe the larger and thinnier gun could have a smaller impact on her silhouette), or just a surfy-styled staff, with the surfboard appearing on some of Nami's animations. Thanks to CaptainMårvelous and Riot KateyKhaos for the feedback!
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, and her recall would have her sitting on her surfboard with some waves under her (idea by ToxicCookie5).
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. They could also be sand balls instead (idea by Riot KateyKhaos). ● Ebb and Flow makes her throw a frisbee with Riot's logo for tons of damage (or tons of healing)! ● Tidecaller’s Blessing gives some fruit to an ally champion with juicy explosions on hit (idea by ALEXKOND from LAS) or beach balls (idea by Riot KateyKhaos). ● Finally, looks like hitting the land with the staff/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)
