Assuming the pinbox and hitch are capable (most are) of hitching at the angle you want, the only concern is the landing gear being bent from side to side - line the pin up VERY well, have the pinbox height within ~1/4 inch of the hitch, and don't hit it to hard. I would have the pinbox a little high, until the hitch is under it, then raise the landing gear until it makes contact - at an angle tire chocks don't hold the trailer as well when hitching. As far as the frame/springs/rims/tires you will have more stress in a single u-turn then 20 sideways hookups.
