Canyon Dune Turn

The Canyon Dune Turn, also known as the Tusken Turn, was a sharply curving canyon on Tatooine along the Mos Espa Raceway, just outside the Laguna Caves. A vengeful tribe of Tusken Raiders known for shooting at passing racers was camped on the ridge overlooking the canyon.^[1]

It was here that Teemto Pagalies lost control of his podracer and crashed in the Boonta Eve Classic race of 32 BBY.^[1]
