Production[edit]
Ski School 2 was credited with being written by Jay Naples. However it has been speculated Naples is just a pseudonym for director David Mitchell, who wrote the first Ski School film.[1] Indeed the name Jay Naples does not have any other writing or film credits listed on IMDB.[2]
Filming took place in Vancouver, British Columbia and on location at Whistler, British Columbia.[3]. It was also notable for being the film debut of both Bil Dwyer and Will Sasso.
Reflecting on why he agreed to star in the Ski School series, Dean Cameron recalled: "I wish the movies were more high profile. They offered it to me – and the script had some stuff in it that was subversive for the time. And I said to the producer and the writer, ‘This movie is so stupid, we will have a great time making it‘. We had a very good time doing that movie.”[4]
Stuart Fratkin, who co-starred as Fitz Fitzgerald in the first Ski School, was not asked reprise his role in the sequel because: "they couldn’t afford both me and Dean."[5]
Skiing stunt work was done by Shane Szocs, who in 2006 was named to Powder Magazine's list of 48 Skiers Who Shaped Our Sport.[6]
Release[edit]
The film was released direct-to-video on February 21, 1994. A DVD was released by Screen Media on December 28, 2004 in pan and scan format.[7]
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia paid homage to the Ski School series in Season 11 Episode 3, having Dean Cameron guest star as a burnt out 'party dude' living on the ski slopes.[8]
