Radius man...radius...that way you get a smooth progressive curve to the ramp rather than risk something that dog legs last minute which runs the risk of throwing you over the cars. It's been a while but I've built a few ramps over the years (back in the old youth centre days). I've done flat ramps and curved ones. Both work well enough, but curved gives a much better result if you want a true jump feel.
For curved measure and cut your arc onto form ply (thick stuff), join with some timber bits, top sheet it (maybe like 10mm or a little more if you feel it will curve into place, don't go too thin it will split). Also put some grip tape on it as this helps reduce slips. I've done a few this way including a roughly 2.5m high quarter pipe in a warehouse which was a lot of fun.
For flat it's just like all the old school north shore. This is the stuff you will be able to accurately measure based on angles as it is all ye olde triangles. If you need a little up lift you can tack extra slats onto the last metre or so and make it raise. 2 of the biggest jumps around here are made like this and it's not difficult to gap about ~25 feet off them and you feel like a king! You can also just make the ladder section and have different height bases to attach it to for different riders.
For the lander I'd build it flat rather than curved. It is less intimidating for less experienced riders and it doesn't sound like you're going to have a run of them that you need to pump some serious rhythm out of.
If you have a helper, drop saw, and nail gun you can whip the shore ladder style stuff out really fast too.
