- "Looks like a few Tusken Raiders have camped out on the Canyon Dune Turn."
- ―Fodesinbeed Annodue
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]
