Canyon Dune Turn

Legends Canon version → Linked from 14 articles

Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

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.

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