I ordered my scratch FS with the Scratch 100 bindings from skiershop.com and they came mounted. I haven't had a problem yet. I guess what jibtech said was right.

don't heli coil anything till the binding pulls out, it just as strong as normal drilling but not stronger, it the binding pulls out will the heli coil, you need new skis, if it just pulls out regularaly then you can still heli coil it. Go to a good ski shop. COP ski shop in calgary is awesome and any in Banff. and get them to glue the holes as well this will help alot. They will be just as strong as any other ski. Any make sure they drill them in the right spot, they have the ski set up to be drilled the right way.

LISTEN, ALL OF YOU!
The binding pulling out issue because of the THC core is no longer a problem.
Rossi, figured this out in the middle of last season, and stopped production. there is now going to be a metal plate inside the ski underfoot, you will not even be able to tell that it is there. The ski will not look any different, and be binding problem will be solved, this new line of scratches should be arriving in North America mid-August. If you buy a pair and the binding pulls out, rossi will warranty them no hassle.
the scratch, despite the binding issue is still going to be the best ski on the market this year.
