foilers

Those who frustrate

Foilers are people or things that foil—that is, frustrate or thwart plans and schemes.

The term appears most often in contexts of competition or conflict: The security team proved effective foilers of the attempted break-in.

In sailing and water sports, foilers are boats or boards equipped with hydrofoils that lift the hull above the water at speed.
