Just received my Seaskin Nova in the mail. Overall build and quality seems pretty solid.

I ordered the Kubi cuff system for to accommodate the 90mm sized glove rings. Just want to make sure they sent me the right diameter? I'd assume the cuff side would be bigger since you just basically shove the rigid glove rings inside? I don't have the Kubi glove system yet to verify for myself I received the correct size.

I got the wider, 40mm comfort braces (suspenders). But I can see no way to use them without improvising something. Seems they're missing the male side of the buckles on the front of the suit, no? I checked around, doesn't look like they included any in what I was shipped.

I got the fitted Light Monkey balanced P-valve. What's the best way to deal with this when not in use? Is it OK to disconnect the hose itself?

Yeah, you are missing male buckle. Send them an email, followed by call to notify of both the issue and the sent email. But first make sure it isn't just thrown in inside the suit.
That looks like a PU ring? I'm not sure how KUBI suit ring is attached to the suit. @Boarderguy can tell you more?
You can either detach the hose (kind of PIA to do it every time you change whether you are plumbing in or not) or just let the hose dangle

Iirc measurement should be on the inside of the glove side ring, not the inside of the suit side ring.
 
Do you have the glove side for kubi? It looks like this when installed. I'm get you a measurement when I get home.
