horizontal velocity has nothing to do with it. It's because they gain a bit of lift before increasing angle

The reason the tail of the plane does not strike the ground in a proper takeoff rotation is because the pilot make sure the aircraft has sufficient speed (and indirectly, lift) to perform the rotation maneuver. The airspeed at which the rotation can happen is calculated based on weight and loading.
