Sorry I'm from The Netherlands (Holland) so shipping costs are to high, and that sucks

buy it man, good deal. there is a product called Gorrilla Glue you should use. I don't know if they have it in the Netherlands, but nevertheless, you should get the board. The price is right, and that is an easy fix. I slammed the corner of my LF Armada and it looked just like the Vinyl. I filled it with Gorrilla glue, clamped it, and then let it dry. The glue will start coming out, so put some tape on the graphics around the crack. Once it dries (24 hours or so) sand it down with some rough sand paper, followed by some fine paper when you get up close. You'll hardly ever notice! Good luck!

Is this the same as 2 components glue

No its not, you might be thinking of a certain kind of epoxy (Where there are 2 tubes and they bond together when it comes out). Gorilla glue is just an extremely strong glue that comes in a bottle with one liquid. Goes on like normal glue and when it dries it expands and looks kind of foamy, holds up awesome though.

Alright it is not the samen, but is it possible with 2 components glue
