The open hi-hats are on 1 & 3 of each 7/16 phrase.  One 7/8 measure equals two 7/16 measures, so I\'ll put this into 7/8 for you:
    |       8         |       8        |       8       |    8   -->
H   |XxXx-xxXxXxx-x|XxXxxx-XxXxxxx|XxXxxxxX-Xxxxx|XxXxxxxXxX-xxx|
S   |----o-------o-|------o-------|o-------o-----|--o-------o---|
B   |o-o----o-o----|o-o----o-o----|o-o----o-o----|o-o----o-o----|
Hf  |-x-x----x-x---|-x-x----x-x---|-x-x----x-x---|-x-x----x-x---|
    (1+2+3+4+5+6+7+|1+2+3+4+5+6+7+|1+2+3+4+5+6+7+|1+2+3+4+5+6+7+)

The remaining 8/16 bar (2/4)
--->    8    |
H   |XxXx-xX-| 
S   |----o---|
B   |o-o---o-|
Hf  |-x-x----|
    (1 + 2 + )

Have fun and good luck.
