World of Dance San Mateo Field Report + videos: who do YOU think should have won?

EddiesdaBomb attended World of Dance San Mateo and fills us in:
"The show since the beginning was sick! I wasn't on time to watch the junior competition.. but all I know is that Funk Beyond Control placed 1st place! and this is no shocker.

For the upper division competition... all the crews were smashing with different styles. but the highlights of the nights were actually the crews who placed! School District which consists of a collaboration from The Hype, Academy of Villains and Academy of Swagg placed 3rd place on the competition... it was their first competition as "School District".. their performance was off the hook! Pharside from Supreme Soul was performing as he's part and founder of AOV.

V.I.P. San Jose won 2nd place! Their performance was ridiculous! They came with such energy and swagg! Their intricate tutting was off the hook.. They used chairs to tutt, which was really funny! i dont think no one really expected VIP to do such a great job! 1st place was Poreotics... like always they came with a funny performance using "Love Story" song by Taylor Swift.. and others.. they blew bubbles and other funny stuff... their creative tutting was off the hook...
though.. as much as i love Poreotics.. i think VIP deserved to get 1st place... don't take me wrong.. it's just that VIP's performance looked like a "real" competiting performance... but I'mhappy all these crews placed!"

Supreme Soul and Quest Crew did a great JOB at their showcase performances! They both got standing ovations! Leslie from Fr3sh, Rocko from Boxcuttuhz, and Julio and Mike from Lost Kids were in the house! Overall.. this event was a big success!"

Thanks Eddie! I've read other commenters online also talking about Poreotics vs. VIP. So, you be the judge. Here are videos from Unit7894 (who also has videos up of Quest, Supreme Soul and Sickstep) of the two crews. Which do you think deserved the gold?
