The group recalls Úbeda, Huércal-Overa, Alhaurín, Loja and Almería as its first destinations, always «for and on behalf of Granada CF». For the 2013-14 season it claimed to have travelled 2,690 km, with trips to Almería, Elche, Seville and Valladolid, and around 200 members in the stand. These are self-declared figures from 2014, not a census.

In May 2014, GranadaDigital reported that the group had lit a red flare and sung its chants at a Granada CF training session, before the match against Almería. The group itself explained that the previous season it made no tifo, though it did make banners, and that it usually suspends its animation temporarily when the club applies measures that affect it, such as surcharges or kick-off times.

In October 2024, Vavel reported that Granada CF was launching an animation stand in the Fondo Sur, next to Preferencia, managed by an association backed by the club's supporters' clubs.
