Since they are so low you don't really have a problem. In fact, my rack used to absolutely flat and low, but I almost never did that. Also you train yourself to watch how you hit.

with a different technique. you just raise your elbows a bit. i can see how it'd seem really weird if you're used to playing a cockpit style setup, though.

Mines really a 5 piece but I took one tom off so I can have my ride nice and close. Here's a crappy picture with some cymbals I hammered. It's a lot better looking and looks more comfortable when I have my B8's on it.
