Worn-out 64-year-old old fart here again.

While descending, the ladder slipped backwards, but then caught
itself. Result: a damaged piece of gutter and two bruised, bleeding
shins with big knots on each.

So anyway, what gutters with guards do you recommend?

Well, I had my ass reamed Monday - literally. Colonoscopy.

See, it can always be worse :-)
