try putting something under the other side of the quarter pipe to increase the angle of the drop-in. Maybe a few 2x4's or something?

either raise the quarter pipe or raise the upper part of the pvc. i would use cinderblocks and 2x4s for that. also, you could build hand rails on the side so you can push yourself down for more speed

Haven't used a PVC run up but I feel like it would be sketchy and suck.

It doesn't. It's the faster than orange construction fence and it's the only reason my setups possible.

Try to get speed from somewhere like a garage or a stair.
