that is just hell. Hold your camera e few cm too high or low
and you'll have terrible parallax differences. A flat surface
doesn't have that problem, you can simply eliminate hight
differences there by optimizing FoV for the nadir.
The only advice I have is to use as much of the horizontal
shots as possible. That means keeping the tripod legs close
together and if you have a vertical extender, use it to keep
the pano head further from the legs.
Because of the close distance to the camera, the legs will
get much smaller in the final view with each cm your camera
moves upwards from them.
