Agreed-
I stripped two screws hand tightening skis with titanium topsheets and soft wood core.
I tapped the skis before putting in the screws, so it was a real mystery. And hand tightening...really I'm not that burly. I considered the heli-coil, but the screw location was not that critical to the load, so I decided to use the method I described above filling the hole with a dowel/epoxy and re-drilling the same hole with a smaller bit. With a heli-coil you need to drill an even bigger hole to seat the heli-coil, but they are bomber as Pete-H suggests.
Actually, that was my girlfriend using my screen name.
CORRECTION: As Pete_H's shop savvy girlfriend suggests.

Works if you need to move the hole a small distance.
