I felt a little dizzy after the Can/USA hockey game as well.  No wait that
was due to another liquid.

Seriously, it could be water entering your ears and causing an inner ear
problem.  When you dive do you wear a dive cap that keeps water out of your
ears?  Try wearing it when you roll.  I've been rolling all winter long
wearing one of those stupid Whites kayak caps (what a waste)  Of all the
purchases I've made since entering this sport that was the dumbest.  It came
with a dinky buckle that was impossible to do up with cold hands.  I
replaced it with a Velcro strap.  But worst of all it lets the cold water in
and traps it right against your ears.
I've been thinking of buying a real divers neoprene baklava.
