I'm talking about the kind of pad that you strap to your body, not to the camera. Links appreciated. This Alexa + zoom is f'n heavy and I'm a wuss.
 
Are you currently using the SP-3 mounted to the camera?

If you are keeping the baseplate on the camera you can use the S-4 or S-5 shoulder sets.

Not sure about a strap to your body pad.
 
I use this. http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/produ...es_1050_CUSHION_Camera_Comfor t_Cushion.html

As you can see with the video, you can pretty much do what you want in terms of movement. Makes dutching, high angle, taking off and just holding from the top handle for a low angle make easier cause you don't have that extra weight from a shoulder pad to be rigged to camera. I used to do the same thing with the REDone back in the day.
