the mountain i usually go to just got a 60 ft shotgun, about 3 feet high and i was wondering if anyone had any tips for sliding it, I can slide their 20 footer no problem but what do you do with those really long ones?

look at the end of the rail, go fast, and stay low.

all the above tips help. one thing to keep in mind, on a single barrel rail, i think balance comes more into play. On a long flat bar or double barrel, I think it's less balance, and more how you get onto the rail. You'll feel it the second you hop in if you're locked on right, and have a shot at making it to the end. Just keep trying.
