Ive gotten these from myself, teachers, and books. The notation is similar to that of the book Four Way Coordination.

The bass drum hits are constantly on every three sixteenth notes, so you are basically doing a 3 over 4 poly-rythm. There are a few ways to look at it. Here it is as three 4/4 measures: (-) = 16th HH|x-O- x-O- x-O- x-O-|x-O- x-O- x-O- x-O-|x-O- x-O- x-O- x-O-| SD|---- o--- ---- o---|---- o--- ---- o---|---- o--- ---- o---| BD|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---| or you can look at it as two 6/4 measures: HH|x-O- x-O- x-O- x-O- x-O- x-O-|x-O- x-O- x-O- x-O- x-O- x-O-| SD|---- o--- ---- o--- ---- o---|---- o--- ---- o--- ---- o---| BD|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---| or as four 3/4 measures: HH|x-O- x-O- x-O-|x-O- x-O- x-O-|x-O- x-O- x-O-|x-O- x-O- x-O-| SD|--o- --o- --o-|--o- --o- --o-|--o- --o- --o-|--o- --o- --o-| BD|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---| And of course, try differnt snare hits and play around with it however you like.
