Motion tracking and recognition are gaining increasing attention in athletes' training for winter sports due to their importance in posture correction and injury prevention. Electronic skin serves as a better candidate compared to vision-based methods. However, the challenges of its application include sensing materials with good stretchability, softness, anti-freeze, non-volatility, and adhesion, and data processing techniques of high intelligence and efficiency. Here, we propose an antifreezing, adhesive, and ultra-stretchable organic ionogel (OIG). Maximum elongation of over 6500% has been obtained for the OIG of the double network, and the mechanical stretchability is retained at temperatures ranging from -50 to 50 °C. Importantly, the multi-sensor system could realize motion "recognition" rather than "perception" with the help of a convolutional neural network.
