yeah iv'e tried this site and i also found a "how to" on fixing one designs.
This reckoned epoxy resin. i have the foot strap input, it is about four and a half cm long, so when ive dried it out i think thats what i'll do but any other advice is helpfull

hahaha - i ahve to say i did the EXACT same thing to a bombora years ago. I used epoxy resin to fix and put a plate on the inside of the hole to hold the plug in. It worked a treat and kept the plug in.....BUT do note that these plastic boards are strogn when they are an intact shell - once they get a crack or somethiing like this happens - they are weak as hell - i found out by snapping my in half not 2 days later.

I hope it goes better for you!

Go and get yourself a plastic 'weld' kit

It's around $50 and comes with all you need to repair plastic. I've used it on my motorcycle fairings with great success.
